Today Google took the wraps off a 12.1″ Google netbook. Now, this isn’t branded and it’s a limited availability Google netbook during a public beta stage. At this point it’s the first Google netbook but certainly it’s bare bones in look and feel. You can’t buy this in the stores and again, will be only for the beta. These Google netbook cr48 models will be given away by Google through various promotions.

A rundown of the specs include: 12.1-inch screen, full size keyboard, large clickpad, Qualcomm Gobi 3G chip for Verizon data in the US, your carrier of choice internationally, 802.11n dual-band WiFi, 8+ hours of active use, 8+ days of standby, webcam, flash storage.
