The Lenovo ThinkPad 8

When you're competing with the iPad, you've got to make something that isn't just good enough - you have to make the user fall in love with the product.

When I first saw Lenovo's ThinkPad 8 in this year's CES coverage, I was intrigued.

It's a tablet that's about the same size as an iPad Mini, but it's running a full version of Windows 8 and has specs that can keep up with many laptops on the market.

With its HDMI port and Bluetooth, you could easily use it as a full desktop running all the software you need for work.

While we haven't spent enough time with the device to give it a full review, we do have some initial thoughts after unboxing and setting up the tablet.
