Lenovo outlet offers X60, X61 tablets at deep discounts
Unlike the last price drop tease *cough* Nokia *cough*, this Lenovo news is the real deal. CrunchGear points out the Lenovo Outlet store which offers notebooks in the R, T, X and Z series. The X Series Tablet PC has it’s own little outlet and I see prices that are up to 50% or more off. Yup, as an example, there’s some originally priced units upwards of $2,900 that are now selling for under $1,400. If I had to guess, I’d say that’s the average price for an X60 or X61 Tablet PC through the outlet although there’s currently five units in the $899 to $1,267 range. Sweet deals for a sweet Tablet PC! Probably a “get ‘em while you can” thing, so if an X60 or X61 was on your radar, it should be beeping loudly right about now.
too bad they are not widescreen….
AHHHHHHHHH!!!! Damn!!! I was soo close to just buying one, right now! But they don’t ship to Canada. And apparently there is no Outlet for Canada. This is not cool, why don’t we have one?! The lenovo tablets are just too nice to pass up… I must find a way to get one, especially at these prices!
So, I have tried ordering from outlet and it is hit or miss. there is usually ONE of these at this price and when it is gone, it doesn’t update. As well, there is NO TRACKING with the outlet purchases.
I have found better pricing using the series of coupon codes and deals that can be found every 30 days. I picked up BRAND NEW X61/2GB/100GB7200/BT/DOCK/DVD/Extended battery for 1600.00 total shipped.
These discounts aren’t that great considering you can’t customize your notebook or tablet. Lenovo regularly discounts ThinkPads by 10% to 25%, plus you can usually stack a 10%-20% coupon on top of the discount to get up to 40% off.
Here’s a coupon that’s good for 20% off X61 series tablets: USPTHRESHOLD
You can stack that on top of the $440-$500+ discount on lenovo.com
