Cedar Trail-based Classmate PC hands-on at IDF (video)

Looking for a Cedar Trail-powered update to the long running Classmate PC line of netvertibles? Intel’s got you covered here at IDF 2011, with a refreshed edition of the very familiar hardware on display. All the usual elements are here, with a handle, touchscreen and stylus combined with a tough rugged casing ready to take the worst a 3rd grader can dish out. It felt a little lighter in our hands, and while this was just a demo unit as usual we’re told OEMs should have production versions available soon. If you need to see it in motion to believe all that next generation Atom power could be packed inside, just watch the video after the break.
