Michael Arrington unveils internet Tablet Proto B

Michael Arrington, of TechCrunch fame, has unveiled prototype B of his proposed internet Tablet.  Called the CrunchPad internally, this looks to be a very useful tablet.

Runs Linux (UBuntu).  Has a touchscreen.  Has GMail support built in.  Has YouTube and Hulu support built in.

Comes with a USB port to plug in a keyboard (which is almost a necessity, in my opinion).

Proposed to cost $299 when (if) it comes out.

Michael, I’d be interested in such a beast should it ever become available.  I’d like a Remote Desktop client, if possible, to included (or to be available to be installed).

Great second steps though.  Check it out
