I’m still waiting for Everex to release the Cloudbook Max, which looks like a huge improvement over the original Cloudbook. But it looks like the company’s decided to offer something to tide us over while we wait. The Cloudbook CE1201V looks practically identical to the original CE1200 (which is now available or as little as $299) on the outside. But inside, it packs a larger hard drive, 1GB of RAM instead of 512MB, and Windows XP instead of gOS Linux.
The CE1201V still packs a 1.2GHz VIA C7-M CPU and a 7 inch screen. So this is an incremental upgrade at best. If you want a faster processor or a larger screen you’re best off holding out for the Cloudbook Max or looking elsewhere for your netbook needs.
According to Cloudbook UMPC, the CE1201V is currently in stock at TigerDirect and Circuit City.
