Intel has succeeded in creating the world’s thinnest laptop. This laptop is, in fact, only a quarter of an inch bigger than the morola RAZR- quite an accomplishment! It also weighs only 2.25 pounds! Unfortunately, this is just a prototype, and we have no current knowledge on when this laptop will be released in the future, or the estimated price (although it is probably quite high).

The editor’s first thoughts? Oooh.. shiny! But besides that, the LG Z1 Pro Laptop is really quite impressive. It even has a mini 2.5 inch LCD screen on the front, which allows you to utilize RSS feeds, email, photos, stock quotes, MP3s, etc. without even opening up your screen. The LG Z1 Pro Laptop also has a Intel Core 2 Duo T5600 1.3 Ghz Processor, a 12.1″ WXGA display with Fine Bright Technology, Graphics ATI Mobility TM Raedon X1350 (up to 513 mb), 120 GB HD, Bluetooth, Multimedia Card Slot, SRS Tru Sound XT, and Audo SRS HD. The LG Z1 is available now for a starting price of $1900.

LG just announced its Santa Rosa Notebooks, 5 X-Note computers based on Intel’s latest chipset. Ranging from the petite R200 (12.1 inches) to the larger R500 and E600 (15.4 inches), these laptops have Core Duo 2 processors, 1-2 GB of Ram, 120-160 GB of Hard Drive memory, NVIDEA or ATI non integrated graphics, and WiFi (for all but the E500).  Although these LG laptops will be available soon in Asia, we Americans will just have to wait (quite) a bit longer for them.
