Manufactured by MSI, the LG X110 is a netbook with added 3G HSDPA and GPS functionality. With a certain physical likeness to the MSI Wind, the X110 includes similar system specifications, including the use of Windows XP SP3, a 1.6GHz Atom processor, a 8.9" 1024x600px screen, a 120GB HDD or 6GB SSD, and 1GB of DDR2 ram. Expected to be released in Europe by the end of September 2008, the LG X110 will have a price tag of 399-499 euros. After months of availability across the European market and Canada, recent LG statements indicate the device will be available in the US before July 2009 for around $400.
