LG/MSI Netbook coming your way

LG X110Ok, so MSI have done pretty well with the MSI Wind. Naturally, you’d expect them to be preparing for the launch of another device - they are. But all is not quite as it seems. MSI are building a netbook for LG!

LG’s name has been synonymous with the mobile phone market until now. LG and MSI will be working together to produce the LG X110 netbook but don’t expect this to be cheap. The X110 has a price rumoured to be about $625 - $790 - no cheap by any standards.

The LG X110 netbook is expected to have the following specifications when it ships:

  • 8.9-inch screen
  • 2GB memory
  • 120GB hard drive
  • Windows XP -  no news on a Linux variant yet.

I can understand any company wanting to join the UMPC/MID/netbook party but I’m sure the price could be a little lower - the whole idea behind this market is one of low cost!
