Looks like you didn't just get a 120 in a 130 housing, it isn't even
the last version of a 120 either...

 From http://www.msu.edu/~luckie/gallery/mp120.htm
'The internal memory type also came in two flavors, ~540k SRAM for the
system memory and 480k (1Mb model) or 1510k (2Mb model) of Flash RAM
(eeprom) for the user's data memory.'

So it seems you got the second version of a 120, which was the first
version with OS 2.0 but still little memory. The last version (the
1510K version mentioned above) had as much memory as a 130 but slower
processor and no backlight.

I completely agree with Laurent, if the price wasn't very low you
should get back to the seller a.s.a.p.
