The Cloudbook, or also known as one of the Eee PC competitors that did not get such a warm welcome into the market, has just received a nice little update.

Everex has expanded on the Cloudbook line, and added the C1201V, which is essentially the same model as the original C1200V, except with a few key items improved.

The C1201V will of course be priced a little higher, now coming in at $449, but for that extra money you get Windows XP pre-installed along with a 60GB hard drive and 1GB of RAM. While original Cloudbook owners could fairly easily install XP with an external CD drive or USB flash drive, the RAM was a pretty big upgrade, as it required taking most of the netbook apart.

In addition the same original features will still be included, which were a 7-inch display with an 800 x 480 resolution, 1.2 GHz VIA C7-M processor, VGA quality webcam, built-in card reader, Ethernet, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and four USB ports.

The newly updated C1201V can be found at either CircuitCity or TigerDirect.
