Why do you need free wifi if you are paying for an unlimited data plan? Unless the 3g connection speeds are terrible?
Way to many versions of this thing...there are two versions of the eeepc900 now? MSI Wind looks like the best bet for me.
When I was in school, campus security used as SUV in the winter and golf cards in the spring/fall. When it rained, you could put a cover over it and still drive it without getting wet unless you were in a storm. Worked out quite well with the golf cart...it's really quiet for use at night, easy to get in and out of, and has no learning curve if you can already drive a car.
This should be called the EEEE-PC. The fourth E is for expensive.
The motherboard pictured in the first link has PS2 and serial connections which are absent from the desktop case...the desktop has more audio connections as well.
Hopefully they don't forget about the 770 users out there. The OS and apps crash on it way too often. It would be great to have a different OS to run on it. If it ends up working well, a n810 my curb any desire I have for an eeepc size laptop..not that it would matter as the are about the same price.
Looks promising. With the new eeepc prices rising with each new version, it looks like it would be along the same price as a 10" eeepc. Still too pricey for me...I don't need an ultraportable enough to warrent paying 50% more than my current laptop costs; I can cary the extra 3lbs with me for that price. If I ever do get one, I hope they'll have a trackpoint style mouse by then.
I wouldn't see a need for a GPU if we could get better raytracing results. raytracing is amazing, it provides the best looking scenes, but at the cost of speed...depending on the system and the scene, it can take up to several hours to render a high res image.
It would also be good for hiking/camping/etc trips where you wouldn't want the extra weight/sapce of extra batteries in your pack.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm pretty much a complete noob when it comes to camera stuff. My wife loves to take pictures, though. So much so that she literally wore out her first point and shoot camera, and the Kodak Z712 I bought for her less than two years ago is starting to act up as well. To compound the matter, we are expecting our first born sometime next year. I fear the Kodak just isn't going to cut it any longer. What would be the best starter DSLR to get? She hates missing photo opportunities due to camera 'lag' so speed would definitely be at the top of the list. Photo quality and features would be next. Price should be no more than $800. I'm not interested in video capabilities."
