Lenovo and RIM's Constant Connect now available

We know you've been literally hanging on the edge of your seat waiting for this day to come, so it's our honor and privilege to announce that Lenovo and RIM's Constant Connect solution is now available. For those who managed to sleep right through February, the technology enables select ThinkPads to automatically pull down BlackBerry emails whenever it's within range, even if the laptop is completely off. There's no word on what it'll cost to have this added into your next corporate machine, but you can head past the break for a quick demonstration vid if you think you're interested.

Update: It's a $149 option from select business partners and through Lenovo.com.

Don't most device sync up throw bluetooth? the biggest benefit is having it sync data from the device to the laptop, e.g. syncing calender data, contact data, & other things. In some ways isn't that what MobileMe does?
