Raon Digital are to produce two new SSD based versions of their Everun Note netbook/UMPC.

There will be an S16S which is set to be a Sempron based unit with a 1.2Ghz CPU, running Ubuntu Mobile and with a 12GB SSD (MLC).  The second model on offer will be a super fast Dual Core Turion based unit entitled the D24S. That will be fitted with a 24GB SSD (which comprises of 16GB MLC and 8GB SLC). The D24S will be running Windows XP as an operating system.

Pricing isn’t confirmed yet but expect to pay around $659 for the S16S and $950 for the superior D24S model. The S16S is available mid November but, if you are interested in buying the D24S, it’s available for preorder now.

As umpcportal pointed out, all the Note needs now is built in 3g and it would be an absolute gem of a UMPC.

Jkk over at jkkmobile has had the opportunity to unbox an Everun Note prior to starting using the netbook as a test machine. He recorded the unboxing and the video is interesting to watch, showing the Note, by Raon Digital and the well designed packaging it comes in (which looks amazing).

The Everun Note looks smaller than I expected it to be but, it does look good and most of the keys on the keyboard seem easy enough to use comfortably.  I was pleased to see the inclusion of an optical mouse and a memory card reader too,  nice additions and with 2 USB ports, connectivity seems pretty good too. The antenna for the 3G card isn’t installed in this unit but, that wasn’t really expected and Jkk will add that himself. Of course, the Everun Note has a touchscreen feature and that looks like a great feature which seems easy to use.

The Everun Note has been recalled by Raon Digital due to failures such as the CPU’s overheating, a high pitched noise from the fan, inaccurate battery level information and blue screens, according to its website.

Everun Note owners that are affected by problems with their device can check out the Raon Digital website here for more information. It’s unclear whether the units will be repaired or replaced at this time.
