Google represents cheap device intended exclusively for surfing?

According to the unofficial information, the device, or better say terminal, will not use the Microsoft operative system, but some of the Linux OS versions. It probably won't even have a hard drive for data storing. That role will be taken by small-size flash memory.

The system will support applications for Internet surfing, sending of electronic mail and similar operations. The terminal will be connected to the TV set and projected price of the device is about 200 USD.
