We knew about this launch, so there is no surprise. Today, Asus is launching its new 8.9-inch Eee PC 900 right on schedule. The offered EEEPC900-W017 model features Intel?s Celeron M 430 processor at 1.7GHz, a 12GB solid state drive, 1GB of RAM, and a built-in 1.3MP web camera.
Until now, ZipZoomfly is selling the XP version for $600, while buy.com is offering the Linux edition for $566. I’m not so sure where that $550 pricepoint went but i suggest you to hold off for just a bit longer, the price may drop down.
