 Everyone's favourite location based service Foursquare has steadily been growing over the past few months into the community that it is today. Foursquare lets strangers stalk you, ex's find you and significant others keep tabs on your location. Fortunately for us, that's not all Foursquare is used for!
In conjunction with the upcoming PIKON PC Fair 2010 (II), notebook manufacturers Lenovo are announcing a special promotion for the Foursquare community in Malaysia. The first 50 Foursquare users per day that check into the Lenovo booth (C08, Conference Hall) will be rewarded with a special premium! As far as we know, Lenovo is the first technology vendor to offer a Foursquare promotion at PC Fair.
Sunny Ooi, Country Manager, Home & Small Medium Business, Lenovo Malaysia said: “As a technology company, we believe that sustained presence on social networking services is essential for us to stay connected and relevant to our consumers today. After establishing our presence on Facebook and Twitter, our latest foray into Foursquare will help us better inform and engage in dialogue with our consumers.”

Style and Entertainment to Go
Announced

can enjoy carrying an ultra-portable that offers long battery life allowing them
to stay entertained and connected no matter where life takes them. The clean
and sophisticated appearance of the Lenovo IdeaPad U460 is made possible by its
“U” shaped outline inspired by a closed book lying on its side, while its
textured aluminum top cover adds a further touch of style and class to its
elegant design.
Measuring less than one-inch thick and weighing in at only 1.95kg, the 14-inch
U460 comes with an 8-cell battery and the
latest Intel Core processor with Intel Turbo Boost Technology for impressive
performance in a thin and light package. For staying connected to friends and
family while on the move, the U460 comes with integrated Wi-Fi and a range of

protects the hard disk from physical damage and data recovery tools for ease of
mind protection.
