The Cloudbook is now official and will be available beginning in late January at Walmart.com and will retail for the magic price of $399. With an overall set of specs this should make a nice alternative to the Eee PC.

The Everex Cloudbook will be officially know as the CE1200V and will feature a 7-inch WVGA TFT display, 1.2GHz VIA C7-M ULV mobile processor, digital video output (DVI-I), 4-in-1 card reader and a 1.3-megapixel webcam. In addition the CE1200V will have a 4-cell lithium-ion battery that should offer around 5-hours of battery life and weighs just about 2-pounds. The major difference between the Eee PC and the new Cloudbook will be the 30GB hard drive that is included in the Cloudbook as opposed to the smaller 4 and 8GB flash-based drives of the Eee. Personally for a small mobile computer I would prefer the smaller flash-based storage.

With the success of the Eee PC this could mean good news for the Cloudbook, especially with the device being sold at Walmart.
