The Jolibook is set to arrive sometime in November. Running Jolicloud 1.1, the Jolibook will be the first out-of-the-box Jolicloud-powered computer.
It's set to appeal to the web-app-lovers crowd; small and reportedly affordable, it will come preloaded with Skype, Facebook, Chromium and other popular apps.
As far as specs go, what we know now is that the machine will come with a dual-core Atom N550 processor -- a netbook-specific piece of hardware that Intel unveiled just months ago -- and a 250GB hard drive.
The Jolicloud OS has been on our radar for about a year. Initially, we loved the pre-beta version and commended it as a lightweight OS with a great look and feel. It's Linux-based operating system that you can download now free of charge, if you want to play with the OS before the official Jolibook comes out; you can also do a dual-boot with Windows.
We can't wait to get our hands on a Jolibook later this month to see how a web-focused netbook works in action. We're also wondering how it will compare and contrast with tablets we've been using lately.
What do you think of the Jolibook so far? Is it something you'd want to take for a spin or perhaps give as a gift?
Here's a quick demo of the Jolicloud 1.1 OS running on an Atom N550 processor:
