After just publishing the post describing how Acer may overtake Asus in netbook sales in 08, I came across this interesting French-made video on YouTube; it shows the Acer Aspire owning the Asus Eee in the boot-up sequence (Linux).

The Asus Eee PC line has expanded in ways some of us might never have imagined when the original 7-inch was announced. There’s the upgraded 8.9-inch to the bigger 10-inch and even a premium 10-incher announced just recently. With all those products in the line, you got to wonder what’s next for Asus.

So you’ve always wanted to get an Eee PC but wished it could look a lot better? Here it is—basically a repackaged form of the Eee PC 1000 is the new Asus Eee PC S101.

Laptop Magazine reviewed the largest mini-notebook yet, the Asus Eee PC 1000H. The review had many good things to say about the mini-note, especially its spacious keyboard—the most spacious yet among all Eee PC variants.

I’ve been expecting the 10-inch Asus Eee PC since January of 2008, but with the recent announcement of the Eee PC 901, I wasn’t expecting to see the 10-inch version anytime soon. Imagine my surprise when I caught wind that recent events suggest otherwise—the Asus Eee PC 1000 will be released soon; June soon, in fact.

Last January, news came out that Asus plans to integrate WiMax technology into the next generation of Eee PCs. Hence, when the Intel Atom-based Asus Eee PC 901 was confirmed just recently, WiMax was part of the planned specs, as mentioned by the company CEO.
