I have a white Eee PC 701, I feel ASUS have just totally lost the plot now. The additional cost of the models following the 701 are not justified and makes the Eee PC just another Laptop competing with all the other brands. The continual size increase also indicated it will end up as just another Laptop.
The 701 has it's faults which you can generally overlook due to the price, the 900 should never have been released, it's such a waste of money for little real inprovement, other than the screen size. I guess the only consolation ASUS has is most of the recently released competing models from other manufacturers have the same poor value for money. The MSI Wind looks Ok on review, until the poor battery life is revealed.
Come on ASUS if you don't remember what made the 701 a success quickly, you will be dead in the water.
The phone has 256MB of RAM and a 1GHz processor, which do the job reasonably well, though the Anna interface will likely leave something to be desired for many smartphone users.
