Looks like a photoshop someone would post on this forum.
They have also announced an iBook killer...

It has the 13.3" widescreen display people wanted Apple to give the iBook.

That's because it is "fake". It's a 3D render of the real product, a computer company will very rarely put an actual photo of a product on their site. 99% of stuff out there is a 3D model of it, not the real thing.
That said...the page is in friggin Mandarin or something, what do you want me to do with that?

Babelfish! It's likely only going to be sold in Japan like the other U series. I'm more interested in the 13.3" screen of the S series making it into an iBook one day.
One of the pictures shows what appears to be the "full on rig" with carrying bags and a keyboard and power supply and cables. By the time you put all that together, you're carrying more than an iBook's worth of volume, plus you have to hook it all up, plus you have a tiny screen.

Mandarin is actually the official Chinese language variant used in the People's Republic of China and in the Republic of China on Taiwan, as well as one of four official languages in Singapore. There are more speakers of Mandarin than any other spoken tongue, but the language on that site is hardly Mandarin. Your eye was keen enough to observe that the written Chinese Hanzi characters are very similar to the Japanese Kanji, and this is probably where you became confused.

Really. . . I thought english was now the most widely spoken language. . . seriously.

Mandarin is still, by far, the most widely spoken language - about twice as many as English speaking people. English has only recently made it into the number 2 spot over Spanish and Hindustani.
