Lenovo intros three 1080p monitors

It carries are integrated speakers and a microphone, along with three USB ports and a VGA camera. Push buttons are absent, replaced with capacitive touch buttons instead.

While pricing and ship dates for North America are absent so far, a pair of vendor sites hint the L2461x may cost under $600 despite an equivalent suggested retail price of $1,145 in the Netherlands. The three should begin shipping in North America before the end of March, although Lenovo has not confirmed this. [via ThinkPads]
