A new W series ThinkPad from Lenovo is on the horizon according to documents recently unearthed from the FCC's web site. It will reportedly have a Samsung-produced 17-inch 1920x1200 LCD screen, 320GB Fujitsu hard drive and a built-in Wacom Digitizer. What's interesting is that it is also listed as having a 2GHz Intel CPU, and Engadget infers that it may well be an Intel Core i7 Extreme CPU with 8MB of L3 cache, 3.2GHz single-core max speed and 55W TDP. This doesn't bode well unless you're willing to spend ridiculous amounts of cash to get the power of a desktop on your lap. And besides, this info hasn't been confirmed by Lenovo and can't be cross-checked anywhere else for now, so don't cross out the ThinkPad W701 from your Christmas wishlist just yet.
