LG came up with the new ultrathin X300 laptop  for the first time at CES 2010. LG X300 is incomparable with other thin laptops in the industry. It’s a 11.6-inch machine which explains my problem. I don’t know if it should be included in the netbook or the laptop category. But after all, netbooks are simply smaller laptops so I wouldn’t be wrong no matter what I’d call it!

LG’s X300 laptop may have largely avoided comparisons to a certain other thin-and-light, but it looks like LG is intent on driving that point home regardless. As you can see for yourself in the promo video after the break, not only has LG carried on the oft-imitated manila envelope motif, but it tops things off with a just slightly off “la la la” refrain for good measure.

All of which might have earned LG a few points for boldness if this were a parody ad released a few years ago but, sadly, this is 2010, and this ad is all too real.

Watch the video from CES on LG X300 laptop.

The LG X300 is an ultra-portable computer which only weighs 970g and measures 17.6mm in thickness. Well, sure, it’s not thinner than Adamo XPS from Dell but it’s almost there.

The laptop will offer you a 11.6-inch LCD display, a unique “reflective” keyboard and a borderless touchpad which features hidden lighting and tactile feedback. Inside that supple case you’ll find a 2.0GHz Intel Menlow platform based on Intel’s Atom Z550 chip, 2GB of RAM and a SSD ready to store your precious data. A simple 2-cell battery will last up to seven hours which is quite remarkable. Other features include Bluetooth connectivity, a 1.3-megapixel webcam, SRS TruSurround HD sound and a built-in 3G modem chipset.

Besides being ultra-slim and ultra-portable the laptop is also fanless which means it’s ready to go with you everywhere without disturbing the ones around you. Maybe James Bond could use one as it should fit very well in his next smart car that he’s going to destroy.
