Twist Netbook
The real story behind the litl Netbook is not its hardware. Granted this minilaptop has one of the most unique designs to date, with a screen that flips over such that it resembles a digital photo frame not to mention a control wheel on the bezel for rotating between images. Even its keyboard has a special look which is artistic yet not impractical. There is even an HDMI port for hooking up to large screens, a feature rarely seen in Netbooks. Atom-based minilaptop with a limited feature set. What really impresses is the marketing of the litl as well as the operating system it runs on. Instead of focusing on hardware and technical talk, the product Web site goes down the lifestyle route and sells the litl as a lifestyle accessory which will beautify your life. The litl’s operating system is designed in the same vein and used a proprietary OS. It simplifies usage using an icon-based interface and does away with local storage in favor of a data cloud on the Internet. Besides instant syncing, the company also said that being cloud-based prevents a thief from accessing your personal information if your litl is stolen since it can be “cut off” from the data source.
