The Lenovo IdeaPad K1 has been taking its sweet time on its trip to American shores. You may remember it was the Lenovo LePad, though the tablet has been slightly updated since we first saw it. A display placard from OfficeMac has surfaced, and its details echo those of a recent Buy.com listing for the slate. The IdeaPad K1 runs on Android 3.0, has dual front and rear cameras, a 10.1-inch screen, and 10 hour of battery life. When it hits OfficeMax’s shelves — and that could be soon — it will retail for $499.99. That’s not the cheapest Honeycomb tablet we have seen as of late, but it’s also not the worse.

Actually, for the 32GB variety, it’s pretty close to it.
I think, regardless of price, the value of this tablet is the enterprise functionality. I personally am interested because my company requires COTS SD card remote wipe, encryption, etc. Not being an Apple fanboy I’ve been waiting for an Android phone and tablet that can answer the mail in that aspect.
Sorry Lenovo, I will never buy a piece of tech with the word ‘pad’ in it’s name.
I’m glad that this is a story about office max and the picture is a pull tag from office depot….
