Does Lenovo really think anyone will pay $1,700+ for this?!

It looks like not many people did. There are lots of business laptops with the i5 processor starting at around $1000. Still this looks like a nice product, and the ability to remove the keyboard and have a lightweight tablet makes it desirable. Now that the 4th generation Haswell processor is out, there will be some deals on this machine.

This is a professional grade tablet, not consumer type tablet that has Atom processor or not very durable. It uses i5 and i7 processors, i.e. it's a serious processing power in a very small format. Also, it has a lot features that other similar products don't have, but are required by businesses. It sells very well so far in the business world. I completely understand that for the consumer/home type of customer this seems a lot more expensive than other tablets. But that's because it's a more powerful tablet, and it's targeted for the business world.

Loooks like Asus is coming back to earth.With competitin fro Acer Aspire one they first tried $50.00 rebate on 901 which probably did not work now they dropped price by $100 on 900 and 1000 series and $50 on 16 G linux 900.They had priced these things unreasonably high.But still Acer aspire one 160 gb XP is still a better deal.

Now, half a year later, "high-end" 1610 here at Amazon costs $260, and "consumer version" 590 (supposed to be identical to 1610) costs $360. Funny, hah?

you can call lenovo to find out. I do know you will save couple of hundreds dollars compare with buying at China.

Your right, Amazon doesn't say anything on that but I've talked to the Lenovo people and they did say there is a one-year warranty which I've had to take advantage and those repairs have a 90 day warrant. Sounds nice but if even the repairs don't fix the problem a life-long warranty is still useless.

No it's not. That model I found on the Lenovo website. It was considerably more.

Amazon does not always have the best price... I have watched the price on this item for a while. FYI, if you live near a microcenter, they have this laptop for $1199 - $200 (instant savings) = $999.... Its an in-store only special, but you can find more info on their website http://microcenter.com ... I have e-mailed Amazon to see if they would lower their price, but I am still waiting for a response... I also would prefer to buy from Amazon to use "prime".

The real question is - how rich are you? What makes you think a $1500 laptop is cheap?

Nope. The touch screen version of this model is about $100 more and can be found at Lenovo IdeaCentre C560 23-Inch All-in-One Touchscreen Desktop (57324509)

There is no catch. My answer is based on my purchase a year ago. The deilvery and shipping were good, the laptop works fine. I think the price is reasonable because it is not much of the gaming laptops but rather your daily business use (or that's how I use it.) I love it :) I think the price might be 'cause its windows 8, when 8.1 is out already, but that is my assumption.

Boy that larger screen is pretty appealing to me! I'm actually hoping that Amazon will have it for more like $500. Newegg seems to be a little more expensive on other items when compared to Amazon. Plus Newegg charges another $20 to ship. Fingers crossed.....

So, they are actually shipping this? Is this the UK version, since Lenovo does not seem to have released it in the US yet?

Hi. No it isn't. That's why it's much cheaper. It's a great computer though. I hope this helps.

No, and 4 GB is not enough! It crawls after a few weeks, choppy video, etc. After 5 months of use I would not recommend purchasing a Lenovo computer to anyone. The digitizer in these machines crack VERY EASILY. I took great care of my machine and opened it up a few months back and the digitizer was cracked. It was never dropped, etc. Lenovo customer service was awful. Took FOREVER to get a response and when one finally arrived, "Oh, so sorry, $500 to fix". I just purchased another ASUS. Higher quality and better price. LENOVO is CHINESE CRAP! Be warned

Agreed, Amazon can shove it. Just bought one off of eBay. Base price was 1889.99 shipped, but I get $151.20 cash back from Windows Live, and hopefully another $56.70 cash back from ebates.com for a total price of $1682.09. Ordered it today around lunchtime, will be delivered tomorrow between 10 and 2. (beat that, Amazon).

Ok WTF...they RAISE the price on the 650 to $1999, RAISE the price on the 75- to $2049, and then they LOWER the price on the 850 to $2199?I'm done with the 650 but I will still consider the 750 and the 850 IF the price comes down
