 Femaile Cloudbooks
Everex has created quite a buzz with the announcement of their $400 Cloudbook!  A nine inch screen, Ubuntu Linux OS, Camera and a bunch of Open Source Software.  Originally due to be released Late January, the release date got moved to 2/15/08 to address some "tweaking" according to Everex.  And rumors are that the first batch has already sold out.  I am not sure how that works.  You don't have one of these even available yet, but pre-orders have you sold out. But I can't find anywhere on the net to Pre-order a cloudbook.  Maybe its there, its just not available the way I search it . . . . .

Anyway, Paul C. Kim is already touting the next generation Cloudbook and what its iteration will be including.  According to Kim, this new cloudbook will be available this year.  Some highlights:  An SSD Option, "Female Colors", a 22 inch screen option and the company is considering mobile broadband. Add to this, the already announced touchscreen function!  Wow!  It all sounds exciting!  It might be really nice to actually see some of these in the Walmarts across America as Everex promised however . .  .  Regardless, this is a segment of the computer market that I think is going to be huge in the coming year!  I have said it before:  "If all you really need is portable email and internet, a Eee PC or an Everex Cloudbook might be the answer to your dreams!"
