For all the mobile geeks out there, be informed that the already-portable Asus Eee PC 901 just became more portable. Asus Eee PC has a new feature but thankfully, the company isn’t bundling it as a new type of computer that’s separate from the ones already in the market.

Remind me again what the whole point of the Asus Eee line was? Oh yeah—to provide an ultra-portable notebook that’s within reach of most people who’d want something like it. The original 7-incher fits the bill perfectly—affordable: check; small: check. The new Asus Eee PC S101, however, is none of the above.

You know you’ve been releasing too many varieties of one model when you try to get rid of the older, more unfavorable variation. Not too long ago, we reported that Asus will halt production of the Asus Eee PC 900 to give way to the Atom-powered Eee PC 901.

A family friend posted a question to me in Facebook tonight asking me if the Asus Eee PC takes SDHC? She wanted to get an 8GB for her mini Asus wonder.

The answer is YES!

What is SDHC?
For those who don’t know anything SDHC, it stands for Secure Digital High Capacity which are the new generation of Secure Digital / SD memory cards. Size starts at 4GB and come in different speed classes:

• Class 2: minimum sustained DTS of 2MB/sec
• Class 4: minimum sustained DTS of 4MB/sec
• Class 6: minimum sustained DTS of 6MB/sec

It’s important to understand what SDHC Class your device is so you can buy appropriately, i.e. it would be a waste of money buying a Class 6 SDHC for a gadget that only has a max DTS of 2MB.

Hope this helps.
