The rise of the 10in, 1024 x 576 netbook continues. This time, its LGs X120 now officially said to be out over here in April.

The X120s claim to fame is integrated HSDPA 3G and stylish looks, but were not impressed by the shift from a 16:10 ratio display to a 16:9 one. Heck, 1024 x 600 is arguably too short a vertical resolution, and knocking 24 pixels off just to spare video-viewing punters a couple of slim black bars is daft.
However, LG did confirm the X120 - which comes pre-loaded with Windows XP - does contain a compact Linux kernel for fast booting - six seconds, LG claimed - into a basic UI for surfing the web, viewing photos and listening to music.

XP for the dull stuff, Linux for fast booting

Other specs are standard netbook fare, including a 160GB hard drive.
