There’s also WiFi a/g/n or b/g/n, NVIDIA NVS 4200M graphics with Optimus GPU switching, up to 320GB of HDD storage or up to 160GB of SSD storage. Battery life is up to 15hrs with the 9-cell pack on the T420, or up to 11hrs with the 9-cell on the T520; the T420s can last up to 10hrs with both the 6-cell regular battery and snap-on battery slice.

Alternatively, pair the T420 with the optional 9-cell battery slice and it will run for a ridiculous 30 hours. There’s also a new microphone system which can switch from Private Chat – using DSP to focus in on a single voice – or Conference Call, which picks up noise from everybody in the room.

The Lenovo ThinkPad T Series will go on sale from March 29 2011, priced from $1,399, $1,029 and $999 for the T420s, T420 and T520 respectively.
