WTB LG XNote A1

[la3541]

I would really like to purchase an LG XNote A1. Core Duo with dedicated graphics weighing only 2 lbs? Its awesome and the only other notebook that light with core duo and dedicated graphics that I know of is the C1 at an extra .5 lbs.

Unfortunately, they sure are hard to find in the US. The C1 is a piece of cake in comparison.

They are all over Korea. A Google search for "xnote a1 t260k" will show many Korean resellers.

Also Korea Ebay, http://www.auction.co.kr/, reveals many more.

It is also readily available in South Africa (presumably with English Windows and keyboard). A Google search for Xnote A1 5ajzz shows many resellers there. I contacted all the South African vendors I could find, but none will ship to the US.

Does anyone speak or read Korean that could help me find a Korean vendor willing to sell to me in the US?

Or know a South African vendor willing to ship?

Thanks for any help. I will be glad to pay a finders fee!

I am in South africa, I check for you the online store in South Africa, they only sell the model with the integrated graphic card, not dedicate card. is it different version that sold in South Africa?

ummm...every korean site i go to when i type that in says that it only has integrated as well. are you sure you have the right model?

Shows what I know, I thought the A1 was only available with dedicated graphics.

I guess I'll have to get the C1 from Canada, or wait for the Asus U1f and get the external expresscard dedicated graphics card.

Thanks for looking for me, though, I appreciate it.

You can try to wait for the Z1, it is 12 inch notebook with dedicated graphics. Don't know about its weight but it shouldn't be heavy. It is in its famous piano black design.
