litl: a potentially new breed of laptops

We built litl to enjoy the web at home. When you see our main navigation screen, you'll immediately know how to use it. Just point and click. Litl eliminates menus, icons, and folders. In fact, we've removed all computer administrative debris between you and the web.

Driving litl is a joy. We’ve built the browser right into the user interface so it’s instantly available. A search box stands ready at all times. We always give you a full screen view; you never resize or juggle overlapping windows. And no matter where you are, hit the litl blue button and get back home.

When you flip litl into easel mode navigation remains easy. Inspired by an old television dial, we use a wheel to change channels. And for the remote, we've replaced a billion buttons with the same wheel design. Simple.

看起來很有趣的新筆電概念,不過我覺得獲得重大成功的機會並不明顯。稍後有時間再來多研究一下。

This is an idea that I don't see a big chance to win, but it's interesting. Will take more time to look into it later when I'm available.

硬體的設計概念也許不是首創,我上個月在韓國首爾的地鐵上就看過有人拿著這樣的東西在看影片,當時還以為是他的電腦折壞了 ~ T_T

這個構型的概念確實不新,很久以前就有可以把螢幕轉來轉去、翻來翻去的小筆電或平板電腦;我覺得比較有趣的是它的整個軟硬體搭配、以及使用情境。不過我也說了,這個要大成功不太容易就是。
