Official blog post:

<< At the core of each Chromebook is the Chrome web browser. The web has millions of applications and billions of users. Trying a new application or sharing it with friends is as easy as clicking a link. A world of information can be searched instantly and developers can embed and mash-up applications to create new products and services. The web is on just about every computing device made, from phones to TVs, and has the broadest reach of any platform. With HTML5 and other open standards, web applications will soon be able to do anything traditional applications can do, and more.

Chromebooks will be available online June 15 in the US, UK, France, Germany, Netherlands, Italy and Spain. More countries will follow in the coming months. In the US, Chromebooks will be available from Amazon and Best Buy and internationally from leading retailers. >>

I may get a few on the Chromebooks for Business with my father's company if they offer the service in Europe...

Considering buying a chromebook, as one of the projects I am working on is specifically tailored for these kind of services (http://www.apriol.com and for info http://info.apriol.com), but dunno yet, depends on a lot of things.
