If you thought that the iPad was big and bulky, wait until you see Lenovo's new home tablet. Lenovo has been hard at work designing a new tablet that can function as an all-in-one device. The Lenovo 23-inch tablet is a behemoth to say the least and is designed specifically for home or office use.
You're probably thinking that the Lenovo 23-inch tablet is an expensive joke or just a concept design, but you'd be wrong. The Lenovo 23-inch tablet is actually being prepped for a late 2011 release, according to William Cai, Lenovo's senior marketing specialist. Cai sees the tablet as a mobile television or computer and even envisions families playing board games on it. Battery life and weight are unknown, but I'd expect Lenovo designers to knock all the weight off and all the battery life they can before this behemoth is released.
