Microsoft's Surface Pro has been out just over a month now, but with its $899 base price, it's at the high-end of what a lot of consumers are willing to fork over for a Windows 8-equipped tablet, and that's not even factoring in the $120+ keyboard option. Thankfully, the market is getting a few more entrants in the field, and Lenovo's IdeaTab Lynx is one of the more interesting ones. It's priced well below the Surface Pro, is compatible with an optional keyboard dock, and runs a full, unabashed copy of Windows 8.

Although Nvidia's Tegra 3 has been taking tablets and smartphones by storm, there are other noteworthy mobile processors out there, including Qualcomm's dual-core, 1.5GHz 8060A. The Snapdragon S4 SoC appears in the Lenovo IdeaTab S2110, which is a 10.1-inch tablet that runs Android Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0. That's not a bad setup for a tablet, particularly if you're shopping on a tighter budget. Lenovo took a different approach with the IdeaTab S2110’s display than we usually see.

CES is rolling in full force right now, and Lenovo's keeping the party started. What's on tap? Let's take a look. For one, there's the IdeaTab S2 10-inch, hailed as one of the lightest 10" tablets available today. There's also the S2 smartphone, which is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor and Android 2.3. Finally, there's the K91 Smart TV, which is described as the planet's first smart TV powered by the Qualcomm 8060 Snapdragon dual-core CPU; it's also the first Smart TV to run Android 4.0, Ice Cream Sandwich.
