TechnoDad: hands-on with the litl webbook
Michael Ferrara, better known to many as TechnoDad, is a popular home and family-focused technology reviewer. He's appeared on hundreds of local morning television shows across the country as well as on HGTV's "TIPical Mary Ellen" and "Our Home".
On his blog today, Michael published his first thoughts after some hands-on experience with the litl webbook. He noted our bias towards simplicity, adding that the litl could be perfect for his "technophobic" mom. His comments concluded:
"The litl, at $699 seems like its priced out of the market compared to cheap, Windows-based netbooks. But when you factor in the included lifetime upgrades, the multi-angle screen, the automatic backups (litl will shut down your account if the computer is stolen), a two-year money-back guarantee, and the planned automatic upgrades like the ability to download photos and videos, the litl’s premium price is not only reasonable, but looks like a good value."
Thanks for your interest, Michael! We look forward to additional feedback.

We are also finding the litl webbook to be a great family computer. I blog on this at http://pragmaticmom.com. See posting: Loving My litl Webbook.
