Lenovo Unveils The IdeaPad Y560d 3D Notebook

Computer manufacturer Lenovo is ready to delve into the world of 3D PCs by unveiled its first 3D notebook, a portable machine of the series 15.6-inch IdeaPad with a 3D display. It is equipped with 3D software and polarization glasses for 3D games and video playback.

Dubbed IdeaPad Y560d, the new notebook uses TriDef 3D technology which turns 2D images and video into 3D for viewing. This 3D notebook has a 16:9 (1366 x 768) display, a Core i3, i5 or i7 processor, up to 8GB of RAM, hard drive up to 750GB of storage (and possibly a SSD), a Radeon HD 5730 video card with 1GB memory, a DVD or Blu-ray drive, JBL speakers designed, a 1.3 megapixel webcam, Gigabit Ethernet, 802.11 b/g/n WiFi, Bluetooth and even 3G connectivity.

“Fun is a notebook that brings multimedia to life – and the IdeaPad Y560d does this in a dramatic fashion with a truly unique 3D viewing experience,” said Dion Weisler, vice president, business operations, Lenovo. “While 3D technology has been around for ages, it has not been readily accessible to consumers within the home. Lenovo is helping bridge this gap by delivering consumers a 3D experience on a familiar PC platform that can be viewed and enjoyed when and where they want.”

Lenovo’s IdeaPad Y560d is set to become available at the end of this month with a starting price tag of $1,200.
