Lenovo Skylight was a small portable computer with mobile telephone (sometimes called a smartbook) designed by Lenovo.[2] The project was announced in January 2010, but was cancelled less than six months later.

History

Qualcomm was rumored to announce a smartbook at an analyst meeting on November 12, 2009.[3] A Lenovo device concept was shown, and reported that it would be announced officially at the Consumer Electronics Show of January 2010.[4][5][6][7] The Lenovo device was expected to be sold through AT&T carrier in the US.[8] A Lenovo device was submitted to the FCC earlier in October, rumored to be the smartbook in question.[9][10] In early January 2010, it was announced that the Lenovo smartbook's name would be "Skylight" and more detailed specifications were made public.[11][12][13][14][15][16]

Some of the design differences from a traditional notebook included a semicircular shape, relatively larger touchpad, and Universal Serial Bus connector which extends out from the keyboard surface.[17] The Skylight used the Snapdragon technology from Qualcomm with a custom Linux operating system.[18]

In May 2010 the product was cancelled.[19]
