Just over a month ago the LG X13 / X130 netbook passed the FCC and now we have more information about it. The X130 netbook has: a 10.1-inch LED-backlit display with a 1,024 x 600 resolution, an Intel Atom 1.6GHz N270 CPU, 1GB of RAM, a 160GB HDD, WiFi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 2.0 connectivity, and a 9-cell battery that supposedly lasts 12 hours. Will it live up to the claim? Let's hope so. This netbook is going to hit Europe, Asia, Latin America, the Middle East, and Africa for 789,000 Korean won ($632 USD). Yes, no word on a North America release date yet.

The FCC has just let another LG X Series netbook through. This time it's the LG X13 netbook, but it could be released as the LG X130, according to Boy Genius. The FCC document states that this netbook has: Bluetooth and WLAN, but it'll be no surprise to see it also have a 10.1-inch display, 1GB of RAM, an Intel Atom CPU, a 160GB HDD, 3G, and HSPA support. Like the X120, it should also have the Smart-on feature. The price and availability has not been outlined yet.
