As far as the Lenovo IdeaPad U260′s specifications go, it is said to rock a 0.71-inch thickness and a total weight of just 3.04 pounds. It does not have any optical drive, and it will ship with an Ultra Low Voltage Core i3 or Core i5 processor. There’s also no ExpressCard slot, but instead  a four-cell battery, Bluetooth 2.1, VGA / HDMI video outputs, WiFi connectivity, 4GB of RAM and a 320GB hard drive. The price is yet to be announce, but expect it soon. Another photo after the break.
