Despite its official unveiling being tomorrow at Computex, Asus couldn’t help but show off its new Eee PC 901 a day early, complete with full specs.
Confirming earlier reports, the next version of the very cool ultraportable laptop will be powered by a 1.6GHz version of Intel’s forthcoming Atom processor and will come with a choice of Windows XP or Linux onboard. Intel isn’t expected to launch the Atom officially until tomorrow. The rest of what's featured is pretty much as previously reported.
It has an 8.9in screen, 1GB of memory and a memory card slot. The Windows version will come with a 12GB solid state drive (SSD) while the Linux version sports a 20GB SSD. The Eee PC 901, which weighs a very bicep-friendly 1.14Kg - will have Wi-Fi and Bluetooth but Asus confirmed that there’s also a Wimax version planned. It will be available in black and white versions. No pricing yet.
Asus will also officially unveil its cool looking Eee PC desktop.
