After years of product demos and internal tweeking, Google's vision of a computer built entirely for the internet can finally be experienced by the public at large. The first two Chromebooks, unveiled at Google I/O last month, can now be ordered online from Best Buy and Amazon.
The Samsung Series 5 is the handsome 12.1 inch number with long 8.5 hour battery life. It retails for $499 for the 3G model (free data from Verizon) and $429 for the wifi edition.
The 11.6 inch Acer chromebook is slightly more affordable at $449 for the 3G version and $379 for wifi-only.
