Asustek are aiming to ship 20 million notebooks throughout 2010, overtaking Toshiba and Lenovo. If they succeed, it will make them the fifth largest vendor worldwide.

From the 20 million, 8 million is expected to come from netbook sales. Asus are also expecting 30% of shipments to be from notebooks supporting USB 3.0. It’s unclear whether this is just from notebooks they’re aiming for 30% or if they will be adding it to their netbook line and expect 30% of total sales to be accounted to USB 3.0.

I have somewhat bad news for the loyal customers of LG. You might be holding off for a new, even better model than the LG X120 before buying a netbook, but it’s going to be quite a while before LG introduces any more new models in its netbook/notebook line. The company has decided that it will rather work on churning out more phones with touchscreens or QWERTY keyboard than notebooks. This is undoubtedly good news for fans of LG mobile phones, especially since it’s said the company is working towards making their phone products better than ever, but those who are looking into buying LG notebooks might want to look elsewhere if the company’s current offerings don’t seem like worth the money.
