That's what I call a fat margin, 8GB flash costs to manufactures 13 bucks.]]>Aug 16th 2007 5:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/asus-eee-pc-pricing-and-release-dates-loosed-less-flash-for-mor/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/asus-eee-pc-pricing-and-release-dates-loosed-less-flash-for-mor/
The total cost for making a package of twinkies (your favorite food) is about 26cents. Though, they cost how much for a pack of 3? (help us we dont know)... do the math, bozo.]]>Aug 16th 2007 7:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/asus-eee-pc-pricing-and-release-dates-loosed-less-flash-for-mor/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/asus-eee-pc-pricing-and-release-dates-loosed-less-flash-for-mor/
Since the units are identical except for memory size, development and testing for the entire product line would be practically identical and should take place only once. So the price difference between the various memory models should only reflect the extra cost of the memory plus the expected profit margin.

About the lesser Flash - i guess the reason may be no 4/8 GB flashes on market thanks to iPhone. ]]>Aug 16th 2007 5:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/asus-eee-pc-pricing-and-release-dates-loosed-less-flash-for-mor/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/asus-eee-pc-pricing-and-release-dates-loosed-less-flash-for-mor/And who in their right minds would want the Eee in Black anyway?]]>Aug 16th 2007 7:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/asus-eee-pc-pricing-and-release-dates-loosed-less-flash-for-mor/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/asus-eee-pc-pricing-and-release-dates-loosed-less-flash-for-mor/

It was a great concept at $200, but not at $269+...

That's what you get for being a conformist, or rebelling against the rebels, or since white was predominate, then...

Anyway, back to your cell!!!]]>Aug 16th 2007 3:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/asus-eee-pc-pricing-and-release-dates-loosed-less-flash-for-mor/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/asus-eee-pc-pricing-and-release-dates-loosed-less-flash-for-mor/Aug 16th 2007 11:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/asus-eee-pc-pricing-and-release-dates-loosed-less-flash-for-mor/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/asus-eee-pc-pricing-and-release-dates-loosed-less-flash-for-mor/
The flash memory thing as well, I don't get it, am I missing something, I bought a tiny little 2Gig MicroSD card for my phone it fits into my camera with a SD adaptor that came with it, this was $22, I think they do a 4Gig for a little bit more. Why they put such a tiny memory in these new devices and then rave about it being flash memory, I've been buying it for a few $'s for over a year for my phone and camera. Even my Psion 5 has a 2Gig Compact Flash cost about $28 and that’s expensive.

I wonder if you could upgrade this by removing the flash drive and putting an HDD in, that would be a really cheap laptop. Seriously though, 4GB? The last computer I remember having less storage space than that was the Pentium 233/366 computers, and the iBook G3 clamshells.]]>Aug 16th 2007 12:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/asus-eee-pc-pricing-and-release-dates-loosed-less-flash-for-mor/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/asus-eee-pc-pricing-and-release-dates-loosed-less-flash-for-mor/Aug 16th 2007 12:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/asus-eee-pc-pricing-and-release-dates-loosed-less-flash-for-mor/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/asus-eee-pc-pricing-and-release-dates-loosed-less-flash-for-mor/Aug 16th 2007 6:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/asus-eee-pc-pricing-and-release-dates-loosed-less-flash-for-mor/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/asus-eee-pc-pricing-and-release-dates-loosed-less-flash-for-mor/Aug 16th 2007 5:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/asus-eee-pc-pricing-and-release-dates-loosed-less-flash-for-mor/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/asus-eee-pc-pricing-and-release-dates-loosed-less-flash-for-mor/As far as flash goes, it's got an SD slot so if it's low on flash I'll just drop an 8GB card in there and mount it at /home/me and call it good.]]>Aug 16th 2007 1:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/asus-eee-pc-pricing-and-release-dates-loosed-less-flash-for-mor/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/asus-eee-pc-pricing-and-release-dates-loosed-less-flash-for-mor/Sep 9th 2007 2:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/asus-eee-pc-pricing-and-release-dates-loosed-less-flash-for-mor/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/asus-eee-pc-pricing-and-release-dates-loosed-less-flash-for-mor/
A couple users uploaded pictures of the interface on the Eee and I built a little Online Test Drive for the Eee.
