Chromebooks seem to have slipped under the news radar as they are still being sold but you do not see many reviews of them. The Inquirer bucked that trend and published a review of Dell's new Chromebook 11 which sells for a mere £159 overseas and while Dell is a bit cagey about the cost her, it should be around the $250 mark. The 11.6" notebook is tiny, about an inch thick at most and weighing a mere 1.3kg and the PR claims a battery life of 10 hours. The 1366 x 768 screen is nothing new but the Haswell based Celeron 2955U is, along with a 16GB SSD for local storage and your choice of 2 or 4GB of RAM should help make this new Chromebook stand out from the previous generation.
"As you'd expect at such a low price point, Dell's Chromebook 11 isn't the most powerful device, but the firm claims that it is powerful enough to perform all tasks required by the Chrome OS with ease."

I got an HP Chromebook 14 for my wife a few weeks ago, and we both love it. We’d love it more if it had a 1080p IPS panel. With a Haswell processor, it’s plenty fast, and battery life is GREAT, but we’d give up a little of both for a decent screen.
