Asus EEE-PC 900 completely misses the point
via Seopher.com RSS Feed by (author unknown) on June 17, 2008
I finally got around to reviewing Asus' lilliputian notebook the other day (the EEE-PC 701); something I'd been putting off for quite some time.

Ironically, the new EEE-PC 900 is out imminently but I can't see myself being an early adopter for...

via jkOnTheRun by James Kendrick on June 17, 2008
... EEE PC 1000H. According to the reviewer that 10-inch screen provides more room for a larger keyboard making this the best typing EEE PC yet. There are a lot of photos and the obligatory video of the new Asus and I must say it looks like a solid device on just about every level. Take a look at the review and see what you think.
