Popular instant-on software Splashtop have today announced their software has graduated to version 2.0. Splashtop, which is essentially an ultra-lightweight Linux build, is currently used on Asus, Acer, LG, HP and Dell Netbooks to name but a few, and can boot in a few seconds and allows you access to a browser, basic web apps, music, photos and Skype. As for new features, I’ll let Splashtop’s PR do the talking -
So what’s new in 2.0? Well it’s a significant step in every category: it’s even faster than before, has a better 3G connectivity experience, it’s touch optimized, and has a slew of other new features like:

- Ability to customize the look and feel of your desktop with stylish wallpapers and personalized packages.
