Pleasantly Suprised
I got my X121e Tuesday (Very quick shipping, Shipped on Thursday and It turned up on Monday not bad IMO)
Really pleased with this sorta sub-notebook, the quality of the finish all around is good and feels like a proper solid ThinkPad like my old IBM ThinkPad did.
Ordered the "Heatwave-red" screen and my fears were unfounded, it is very scratch resistant and a beautiful velvety texture to it.. I think some others fears of it peeling off were a little exaggerated or a bad batch.
Built in software although a little bloaty was rather good and the connection centre for me with the 3G has been really good although a little slow at times, Accurate battery metre which I like (I usually install BatteryBar, No need with the nice Lenovo one) and the whole machine runs like a dream on 6GB of RAM.
In regards to others comments about the device getting quite hot.. I haven't had this problem personally, played a few 1080P videos which it handles in it's stride (speakers are a little.. bleugh) while never getting noticeably warm (Standard fan settings) and I personally can't hear the fan (At the moment with a few app's open I'm sitting at 40c I have seen this rise to 55 under load).
Battery - I ordered the 6 Cell battery and the battery life under power-saver is amazing.. fresh battery on it's first charge lasted 7 hours on power saver, that's with the 3G on (that turns all the radio's on) and running chrome.. I am very impressed.
Overall - I am really pleased with the laptop and think it's been a bargain for me at £496, The keypad as other have said is finnicky and does get a bit hypersensitive to clicks and right-click doesn't always work but then I
have always intended and always use the nipple (Something I loved from I old ThinkPad)
oh and the A/B/G/N Adaptor seems really good, Good signal.. locks on and connects to dual band radio's quite well.
If anyone's got any question's I'm happy to answer about the laptop, Here's my specs;
Standard Intel X121E but with;
Heatwave Red Screen
3G Adaptor
6 Cell Batt.
