LG xnote z1

LG's offering a new series of 12.1-inch Core 2 Duo laptops in their hometown Korean market with this, their Z1 XNOTE.

They also pack in an optical disc drive supporting unspecified formats, a 5-in-1 memory card reader, a couple of 1.5W speakers, and support for SRS WOW, and SRS TruSurround.

But with a price tag of 1,840,000KRW or about $2,000, you're going to need some help from mom and dad to bring this pup home.
