This is a new "cloud netbook" and while it runs Linux, its not really a traditional PC. Everything is "cloud centric". You run all your activities from the web. Like with Apple, the hardware and software run together for maximum compatibility and ease of performance.

It can be used as a netbook, easel display and with a HDMI connector, it can be viewed on a big screen TV. Think of the Litl Webbook as a "thin client" web device rather than a traditional PC.

Pricing is competitive with Apple. This is what Apple should have done with the netbook - but didn't!

I think this says it all:


How do I download things off the web?

The litl is primarily for use online.

I'm thinking this is a brick when you are not connected to the internet. I can see a niche for it, but I can't really see myself wanting one of these.

If you can get to a wireless hotspot, you should be able to connect with it. That's almost anywhere in the country.
