i'm dan ackerman here at CES 2013 and we've got something that I've been waiting for its the lenovo ideapad yoga 11s now we've seen the yoga 13 that's a 13-inch laptop that kind of flips around at the different positions and Lenovo had an 11 inch version of it but with Windows RT now they've got an 11 inch smaller version of that yoga but with full windows 8 making it a much more useful machine and this is it right here the ideapad yoga 11s the S means it has windows 8 now like the yoga 13 which you've probably seen a million times already this looks like a fairly conventional ultrabook and it's actually one of the tablet hybrid convertible style systems that really does not compromise the traditional clam shell laptop shape at all which is probably why we like it you can take the screen however and bend it back and then you can continue to bend it back and you can first stop off in this sort of stand mode that we kind of call kiosk mode it's great presenting stuff and then you can continue to fold it back and then you have what's essentially a slate style tablet and what it does here is it deactivates the keyboard and touchpad once it folds over so you still have them under your hand a little bit weird but it functions essentially as a touchscreen tablet and then when you're done you could very easily just flip it right back quickly certainly a lot faster than you can with a lot of these sort of pop off screen or twisty screen versions of systems like this now the 11 inch Windows 8 version of the yoga is going to be available in June and it's going to start at seven ninety-nine i'm dan ackerman at CES 2013 and that is the lenovo i give head yoga 11s you
