Normally, you have to pay a premium price if you want to have a tablet that has wireless broadband capabilities, but this sale on the Lenovo Think Tablet makes it a heck of a lot more affordable.

The Lenovo Think Tablet 10.1 is powered by an NVIDIA Tegra 2 (1.0GHz) processor and 1GB of RAM, along with Android 3.1 Honeycomb and a 10.1-inch display. It’s a fairly standard Android tablet in that respect, but it complements its 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi and Bluetooth with a Gobi 3000 WWAN module. That’ll get you online with the major cellular providers.

You also have to remember that this is part of the “Think” line of products from Lenovo, so it is geared more toward the business end of the spectrum. This is like the difference between getting an entry-level IdeaPad notebook and an enterprise-ready ThinkPad notebook. The difference in build quality and materials is like night and day.

This particular Lenovo Android tablet normally retails for $429.00, but you can pick it up now for $329.99 from Amazon.com. That includes super saver shipping. They only have a limited number available, so act quickly if you want to snatch up this deal.

We know that network speeds are being bumped up all the time, but it seems that T-Mobile is ready to really push the envelope with its 3G network. More specifically, T-Mobile USA says that its HSPA+ 3G speeds will be getting ramped up significantly in the next year or so, hitting the 21Mbps range at some point in 2010.

To put that in perspective, AT&T is currently working on its HSPA service to have it launch by the end of 2009, but that’s only going to max out at 7.2Mbps. If T-Mobile managees to achieve what it says it will, that means that you’ll be getting download speeds up to three times as fast as what you’d get through an equivalent connection on AT&T.

Naturally, you’ll need the appropriate hardware to harness this kind of speed, but 21Mbps sounds pretty darn good to me. At least for the time being. That’s because just about every carrier is also working on developing a 4G network and all of these are expected to exceed that upper speed limit too. We can expect a 4G T-Mo network in 2011.
