Faster browsing. New features. New channels.

Good news! Tomorrow, July 26th, we are releasing an update to the litl webbook software to give you more speed and more choices. Some of the improvements you’ll notice right away, and some may be harder to spot - we want to give you a quick rundown:

Faster web browsing
The webbook’s browser is now based on the latest version of Google Chrome for faster and smoother web browsing. Want to try something cool? Check out Google’s new voice search. Go to www.google.com, click the microphone icon on the search bar, and say your search aloud.

See more with TV mode
Now when you plug in your webbook to a TV, we adjust the way web pages display to take advantage of the bigger screen size. We also increased the size of the cursor and provide an extra-large overlay of what you’re typing so you don’t have to squint.

Facebook on your Mediawall
Sit back and enjoy all your Facebook photos in Mediawall, litl’s signature photo channel that turns your webbook into the world’s best photo frame. View your photos from Flickr, Picasa, Shutterfly, SmugMug, and now Facebook in a timeline or as a slideshow.

More channels, more web cards
We’ve improved the performance of your webbook so now you can have more web cards and more channels open at the same time.

And speaking of channels, you may even see a few new additions in the Card Catalog. But more on that later.

Watch for the software improvements tomorrow. As always, litl will download and install the updates - automatically, and free of charge. Depending on the speed of your Internet connection, it should take five to ten minutes. But it’s totally worth it.

Enjoy!
