Much like Microsoft?s upcoming Surface tablet, the Android slate has an optional keyboard dock that can be used for creating a PC-like experience on the device.

In addition to the keys, when the tablet is connected to the keyboard dock you also improve your battery life, giving the tablet the ability to run a whopping 20 hours before you?ll have to search for an outlet. The keyboard dock also brings an SD card reader and USB ports into the mix, allowing you to connect a thumb drive to the tablet or even an external hard drive or house.

On the optics-front the tablet also has a 5-megapixel rear-facing camera for taking pictures, and a 1.3-megapixel forward-facing camera for video chat.

The S2110 is available today for $399.

For the cost-conscious, Lenovo has the A2107 and A2109, a 7-inch and 9-inch tablet respectively. They're designed for customers who are looking to use their tablet for basic consumption such as watching videos, listening to music, or browsing social networking sites.

?The newest line of Ideatab products provides an option for everyone who wants to keep all of their favorite books, songs and movies at their fingertips, no matter where they go,? said Liu Jun, senior vice president, and president, Mobile Internet and Digital Home business.

The 9-inch version of the tablet is available today for $299. The 7-inch version will be available later this year.
