After receiving the LG X120, which, as a netbook, is delightful to look at, I couldn't help but stroll into my local RadioShack before reviewing the product. You see, Radio Shack the only place where the X120 is available, and interestingly enough this is the first LG netbook, or any laptop for that matter, to ever debut in the United States. And it can be yours in one of two ways: One, commit yourself to a two-year AT&T 3G contract, which involves paying $60 a month for an unlimited wireless internet plan, and pay $50 for the unit, or be contract-free and pay $400. Either way, it's tough to take the plunge.
