ASUS debuts the Eee PC 1008HA "Shell" 10-inch ultraportable ASUS has taken the wraps off its latest Eee PC, the 1008HA we heard was on the way to follow up on the S101. |
 |
Hands-on with ASUS' Eee Keyboard Remember that Eee Keyboard that was announced during CES? ASUS did itself proud by bringing a few to CeBIT this year, and we were able to swing by and take a look. |
 |
Hands-off with ASUS' Dual Panel Touchscreen PC at CeBIT Live from the CeBIT floor, we present to you ASUS' Dual Panel touchscreen PC. |
 |
Hands-on with ASUS' galleria of Eee PCs at CeBIT ASUS broke out a stable of Eee PCs here in Germany, and we were on hand to have a look at all of the freshest ones. |
The rest:
Do not touch touch screen
Any sightings of the K-Series notebooks? Those are reported by AMD to be the first with the 40nm 4800 series GPUs that you reported on earlier today.
Hammer time!
What? They're too important to say please?
Would love to hear more about the eee box b204 and b206 as there has been nothing on engadget since Dec 3rd 2008 and I have been waiting for news since then. Also the eeeNAS pc looks kinda cool - would be great if they do a 4GB model.
I'm anxiously waiting to hear about these as well...
Man... I remember back in the day when Asus was just a company that made all the little cheap crappy stuff on the market like $4 mice and what not.
This is a tour de force of design and forward thinking.
It is also a huge bi$*# slap to apple if you ask me (and dell and hp and almost any one of the other big boys, too).
It turns out good design and innovation can both be done in white at price points which are not ridiculous.
Who knew?
The two screen notebook idea should be copied for the next kindle (or whatever competitor).
Though it would need to have some way to be alternatively folded open with just one page showing as many people do now to read a paperback with one hand.
But... being able to hold a book open with two facing pages of e-ink.
Now that is a future I like the sound of.
Reminds me both of yesterday and tomorrow.
...and doubles as its own case.
Sweet.
Hmmm... or maybe even something that folds open with a page in the middle as well.
On one set of 'pages' have two e-ink screens and the other set - two lcd screens with full multi-touch and haptic response.
Give it all to me weighing less than 2.5lbs please and with good battery life.
I will pay $400 and want it by X-mas please-&-thanks.

... also a good quality gps built in.
And what the heck... make the outside solar charging and durable.
;-)
