LG's X300 ultra-thin is thin, sexy, and silent.
The LG X300 ultra-thin notebook was first seen at CES 2010 back in January. The thin and sexy little notebook is very attractive and only 17.5mm thick and weighs 970g. The thin profile and lightweight make the
X300 one very portable machine for those on the go a lot.
The little notebook has an 11.6-inch screen and runs a 2GHz Intel Menlow platform CPU. LG gives the thin machine 2GB of RAM, a 128GB SSD, and it runs Windows 7 Home Premium. The notebook ships with a pair of batteries that total seven hours of use.
The thin little notebook uses no fans and the SSD with no moving parts should make for a notebook that is dead silent. Other features include a 1.3-megapixel webcam, SRS TruSurround HD sound, and an embedded 3G modem. LG says the modem will let user's access mobile broadband using GSM, GPRS, EDGE, UMTS, or HSDPA networks. It's not clear if one single modem supports all these networks or if there will be different modem options. The X300 will ship in Asia in March with other countries coming later. Pricing is unknown for the machine.
