The Webbook is described by Litl as “an internet computer that works great with your favorite websites”. The Litle Webbook can be used as a standard netbook or, flipped round, as a TV device with an optional remote control and “TV style” control knob. It comes equipped with a 12-inch LCD display with an Intel Atom 1.6GHz processor, a GPU that can playback H.264 in 720p, a 1GB of RAM, and a 2GB of built in flash storage. What makes the Webbook interesting is that it has no hard drive because all data is stored on the Internet. Additional features include a built-in WiFi, a headphone port, HDMI, a USB 2.0 port, and a built-in webcam and mic for video conference. The The Litl Webbook is now available for $699 a pop. source - techfresh

We at litl are extremely proud of our webbook. A few extra points: 1. Our webbook is designed to provide a new type of web experience. We’ve removed all the claptrap that stands between you and the web. Most UIs, if people are honest, have their roots in the pre-web 1990s, when computers were essentially hardware interface devices. Smartphones and MIDs have taught us that people need a net-oriented interface. This is particularly true for recreational use of the web. There has been an explosion in webapps and streaming media but most devices are not geared to help you make the best of this. We bring, as has been said elsewhere, the laid back experience of tv together with the laid-forward experience of computers. We’re building a whole new platform for web devices. 2. We’re customizing a range of exciting streaming media and webapp experiences right into our UI. We call these ‘channels’. Instead of multiple learning curves we will give you one interface and one learning curve. There’s a lot of channels in the pipeline. 3. Ours is a stunning looking device. We used the best industrial designers in the US; the litl webbook is unashamedly a designer item. We have the best screen on the market for its size: mega bright and with an ultra wide angle view. Our keyboard, too, is good quality. This quality is reflected in the price. 4. We have built-in device linking and sharing features to keep you, your friends and family connected more easily than you have been on conventional devices. 5. The software you buy on our device now is going to rapidly develop. Our device has an update system that upgrades your software while you sleep. So we’ll be pushing new features and new channels. Nothing to install, no antivirus updates. and no extra charges. Nothing to maintain or configure. Your software will just keep getting better. Litl is an exciting company and we have big plans for the future of home computing. More: litl.com Questions: asklitl@litl.com Follow: twitter.com/litl
