However, this lacks a built in optical drive. But still, an 8600 in a 13.3" is quite impressive.]]>Feb 22nd 2008 11:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/22/lgs-13-3-inch-p300-arrives-in-europe-americans-beg-a-little-mo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/22/lgs-13-3-inch-p300-arrives-in-europe-americans-beg-a-little-mo/Display 13.3 Graphics NVIDIA® GeForce® 8600M GS (256MB VRAM, *TurboCache Technology) / NVIDIA® GeForce® 8400M GS (128MB VRAM, *TurboCache Technology) HDD 120/160/200/250GB(SATA, 5400rpm)..."

Not "3GB of RAM" only up to 2 and HDD 5400 rpm... just another average laptop - though with stylish look :)

I can't be the only one growing incredibly weary of Apples relentless design brief to turn 'minimalism' into 'the new beige'. If you take the Air as a prime example... that whole mantra has now transcended from the blueprints to the spec. sheets.

This is a great release for the market, and will hopefully spur furthur refreshing designs from rivals. Congratulations LG on a non-OSX notebook well done. (Credit where it's due and all that.)]]>Feb 22nd 2008 2:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/22/lgs-13-3-inch-p300-arrives-in-europe-americans-beg-a-little-mo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/22/lgs-13-3-inch-p300-arrives-in-europe-americans-beg-a-little-mo/great specs. but the one we have on display is pink and black.

I ordered one in Germany: Same colour (purple/red) and no fingerprint reader (misinfo on the webpage of my seller) so i sent it back.

The device seemed nice: Silent but powerful cooling vent, average/good display (a bit uneven allocation of light), felt very "quick" (3GB Ram, T8300).
Dislikes: Seemed a bit vulnerable to scratches, no lock for the display to keep it shut.

Cheers
