LG X140 catches the World Cup fever


World Cup fever is here and LG has caught the bug with the release of a their new LG X140 netbook World Cup edition.

The netbook will go on sale in certain countries this month, most likely in countries mad about soccer. There's nothing unusual under the hood compared with the original X140, powered by either the N450 or the N470 processor with 1 or 2GB RAM, a 250 or 320GB hard drive and a 10.1" screen.

It will be available with either a 6-cell, or 9-cell battery, with the later providing 12 hour of battery run time. The 6-cell version weighs 1.3kg while the 9-cell model comes in at 1.45kg.

This special edition will be available in three colors, white, black and hot pink. Each color will have a different world cup design on the lid.
