CloudBook updated with XP, more memory, higher price

Did you hold off on the original CloudBook because you wanted XP but didn’t have a license to spare? Everex now offers the CE1201V that includes Windows XP at a price of $449. The price boost over the original is all in the operating system license: Everex bumped the RAM up to a respectable 1 GB and boosted the storage capacity to 60 GB. In case you forgot the rest of the specs, here’s a refresher:

1.2 GHz VIA C7-M CPU
800 x 480, 7-inch display
802.11 b/g, Ethernet
4 USB ports
4-in-1 card reader
VGA webcam

With a plethora of netbooks with the almost-standard 1024 x 600 display, it’s a shame that Everex didn’t upgrade what might be among the most limiting factors: the screen resolution.
