LG planning international release for X300 laptop this month
Although they've been relatively mum about this product since it was unveiled at CES 2010, LG has some big release plans for the ultra-thin X300 laptop this month.
Starting in March, the LG X300 will first be available in Asia, followed by the Middle East and South America - although it's not clear when exactly it will drop in those regions. Specific dates and prices will also vary from country-to-country.
Developers were obviously as concerned with a sleek design as they were with installing premium specs. Some of the fine touches include a reflective keyboard, a border-less touchpad and availability in two colors ("shiny" white and light brown). LG also promises it will only be seen and not heard, as the X300 utilizes a "fan-less, silent" operation.
Considering that LG is touting this 0.69-inch thick laptop as their "flagship mobile computing device" for 2010, we should see a much wider release some time this year. But until a North American release date is announced, here's some of the specs to keep you entertained:
- 11.6-inch LCD screen
- Windows 7 Home Premium OS
- 2.0 GHz Intel Menlow platform
- Up to 2GB memory
- 128GB SSD
- Embedded 3G modem chipset (Supports GSM, GPRS, EDGE, UMTS and HSDPA networks)
- 1.3-megapixel webcam
- SRS TruSurround HD sound
