FCC filings by Intel today reveal that Lenovo has a WiMAX version of its ThinkPad X100e in the works.  Pictured above, the device relies on Intel’s 622ANXHMW card for WLAN, WiMAX and Bluetooth connectivity.

A closeup of markings on the X100e, below, reveal that the device is manufactured by Lenovo’s OEM partner Quanta Computer Inc. – no surprise there.  Interestingly, Lenovo’s ThinkPad Mini Series is also identified next to ThinkPad X100 series notebooks, suggesting that these devices are essentially based on the same platform.

The ThinkPad Mini series has already made an appearance on the FCC back in December of 2009, and the Mini 10 later showed up in Australia.  Given that these devices are listed under “Lenovo (Japan) Limited,” Mini 10 and Mini 11 devices may just be regional variations of the X100 platform.

We don’t have any word on pricing or a release date yet, but we’ll keep you posted.
