First Impressions Of CherryPal Box

Posted on Dec 12, 08 05:33 AM PDT

Our friends at TGDaily have gotten their mitts on the elusive CherryPal box, and here's their initial take on this diminutive piece of computing equipment.

Aesthetically, the CherryPal PC leaves much to be desired. It is a plain black box. The computer is tiny: It isn’t much larger than my iPod, if that gives you an idea of the size. The company claims that the PC weighs about 2 lbs, which includes the AC adapter. The CherryPal alone weighs about 1 lb. Subjectively, it has a flimsy feel to it and does not provide an impression of a solid build quality. The product design isn’t exactly flushed out, either: For example, the connection ports are on the front and there is no way to hide any cables. And as far as usage is concerned, the CherryPal PC is an interesting system for basic desktop computing and simple applications such as word processing.

Guess it doesn't really score too high in the usability department, as it isn't as powerful enough as a netbook for everyday computing tasks despite being suitable as a compact cloud computing platform.
