LG X120 Netbook Gets Official in the USA LG Announces Its First Netbook for the USA, the X120

LG has decided to launch the X120 in the USA today. Thus LG has
announced its first netbook for U.S. consumers, so let s take a brief
look at it.
The LG X120 is finally ready to be purchased by American customers and
the netbook has some special features to offer. The machine was
announced in Korea earlier this summer and it s about time it became
available in more markets.
The LG X120 is a 10.1-inch netbook that weighs only 2.8lbs but it s
ready to meet your computing needs while you re on the go. The netbook
comes with a LED backlit 10.1-inch LCD, 1GB of RAM, a 160GB hard drive,
a built-in 1.3-megapixel camera, HD stereo speakers, Wi-Fi connectivity,
3G HSDPA support and Windows XP running in the background. The X120 also
has a great battery capable of delivering 7-hours of life. You ll
certainly appreciate that battery next time you re stuck waiting in an
airport or on a longer than expected trip.
Ehtisham Rabbani, vice president of product strategy and marketing for
LG Mobile Phones, had this to say about the X120 netbook:
We created the LG X120 to allow consumers to stay connected on their own
terms. The Smart On(TM) button puts consumers seconds away from the fun
stuff such as showing off your vacation photos or picking your fantasy
football line-up.
The LG X120 will be available for purchase in Radio Shack stores
nationwide or online. You can also get it from AT T stores bundled with
a new 2-year AT T DataConnect service agreement of at least $60 per
month. In that case the X120 will only cost $179.99 and, for that
subsidized price, AT T will let you use up to 5GB of data traffic per
month and access its 20,000 Wi-Fi Hot Spots for free.
So what do you say? Does a $179.99 LG X120 netbook sound good to you or
are you still thinking about that $197 HP laptop offered by Best Buy?
