LG Z1 laptop: chocolate computing with a side of Sideshow

Lgchocolatelaptop
So it looks like the new device naming trend is to stick with flavors. LG must agree because the maker of the LG Chocolate phone will also have a Chocolate notebook: the LG Z1, which is now appearing on GearLog. Not sure I like the glossy-looking casing from a fingerprint perspective, but it does add a air of class and refinement. The Z1 is another laptop offering a 2.5-inch Vista Sideshow LCD on the outside for quick access to e-mail and other data, even when the machine is powered down. Unlike the Asus W5Fe which has a similar external display, this one appears fairly flush with the device casing.

Aside from that, this looks like your standard 12.1-inch WXGA notebook with a 1.83 GHz Core 2 Duo and 1 GB of RAM although it will offer a dedicated graphics card: the ATI Mobility Radeon X1350 with 512 MB of video memory. No pricing or availability just yet; watch for it in your local sweets shop. Hey, didn’t RIM start all of this food naming with the BlackBerry?
