We haven't had many nice things to say about the Litl Easel Webbook netbook since its announcement a few days back, but it looks like the machine has a previously undiscovered trick up its sleeve.
The netbook can be used upside down, just like, well, an easel. The 12-inch screen hinges and pivots to change using styles. In easel mode, the Litl Easel Webbook caters to a different kind of user:
"With its screen exposed, the Webbook is ideal for passive or lean back web activity like enjoying photos, listening to music, or consuming news, weather and other web content."
Other specs, as previously noted, are forgettable: 1.6 GHz Intel Atom, 1 GB of RAM, a camera, Wi-Fi, a USB port, infrared ports and HDMI. One bonus is an additional 2 GB of flash memory.
The webbook will sell for $700, ridiculous name and all.
