Lenovo Pocket Yoga Teaser
(Updated with new photos) Lenovo this morning confirmed the existence of its mystery netbook by posting teaser images on its photo feed. The system is now called the Pocket Yoga and has both the ultra-wide, VAIO P-like display and leather-bound shell of leaked photos. Concept sketches, however, show the PC not only supporting a touchscreen for a stylus but a convertible design that would let the display flip backwards to use it as a very small tablet.
The computer still doesn't have specifications, though its size would likely dictate an Intel Atom or similar chip. Previous photos have also suggested it would have a built-in webcam as well as a seemingly trackpoint-like controller to back up the touch display.
Update: Lenovo said the notebook is described as an "experiment" from 2007 that, following the earlier leak, the company decided to show in more formal shots. It argued that the Pocket Yoga is "finished" but added that the company is always designing new products.
