We have worked hard to develop a fresh, innovative take on how people can best use the web - which is rapidly becoming the platform of choice for home entertainment. Hulu, Flikr, Facebook, Gmail, Flash games: webapps and streams like these are dominating leisure use of the web. Yet conventional laptops cling to an interface model that was born long before the web and exists primarily to manage files on hardware. The litl webbook is designed to manage online content. We have removed legacy interface elements that do not support that aim. You're right that we have 2GB of compact flash because we're built for streaming media. Easel mode and HDMI are important because these optimize the 'lean back' viewing experience for litl channels from throughout the room. The allusions to tv in our design are not accidental - our device *is* a web appliance. Soon we will be expanding the range of content and offerings available in litl channels by releasing an SDK - anyone will be able to develop special channels for the litl webbook. Meanwhile we're working with some great partners to develop some exciting channels. New channels and improvements to our software will install themselves through our update system. Our software requires zero user maintenance. More: litl.com - see the 'philosophy' links in particular. Questions: asklitl@litl.com Follow: twitter.com/litl Now I'll go check out your blog!
