Lenovo Gets Splashtop Instant-On Pre-boot Option

Been thinking of purchasing the Lenovo IdeaPad S10 ? Well now there is another reason to add it to your list (or remove it, depending on your view). The S10 Ultra-Portable is getting the Splashtop Instant-On option.

The Instant-On feature of the IdeaPad, appropriately named ‘QuickStart’ will offer users the ability to connect to the web, check email, chat and/or conference, and perform a bunch of common user functions – all within seconds of powering on.

For those of you that are not familiar with Splastop, it is an ‘Instant-On’ feature that is accessible outside of your normal Windows operating system. It is accessed before booting into Windows after powering on your system, allowing users to perform basic and/or common simple functions like surfing the web, emailing, chatting, listening to music or watching videos, and accessing some data.

Splashtop is pre-installed on the hard drive of the computer or is contained within on-board flash memory of new PCs and motherboards to allow quick access. It is also a software solution that requires no additional hardware.

Splashtop will gives users the added benefit of quickly accessing their most important functions in a simple, easy to use, environment – all at the touch of a button. You can read more information regarding Splashtop here.
