NEC LaVie laptops get more colorful

Now that Dell is offering some of its notebooks in a bunch of different colours NEC is also experimenting with more colours in its new LaVie laptop lineup.
If you want one those new colors, however, it looks like you'll have to settle for the lower-end LL550KG model of the line, which comes loaded with a Sempron 3400+ (as opposed to a Turion 64 X2 TL-52) and drops the 1seg tuner of the higher end models. Otherwise, the various laptops appear to be identical, with them each boasting a 15.4-inch WXGA display, 1GB of RAM, a 120GB hard drive, a DVD burner, and slots for ExpressCards and FeliCa cards, in addition to the usual array of memory cards. Look for these to trickle out in Japan this month and next for between ¥160,000 and ¥175,000 (or roughly $1,400 to $1,530).
