Ubergizmo is reporting that the Asus Eee B202, seen above, will feature the Express Gate instant-boot OS by Splashtop. It’s a simple, quick, lightweight Linux-based operating system that offers near-instant bootup times and access to things like the web, photos, chat, and other relatively simple programs.
The B202 has been floating around for a while. Apparently it’ll finally be released on August 31st (according to ProductWiki) for around $350. There’s a quick look at a couple of shots of the Express Gate interface after the jump.
A very light Splashtop booting directly on the browser homepage would be very useful in mobility!!
