Asus EeePC X101

It should cost less than 200 $ or 170 €. Here is a small video of that nifty new toy :




From what I know it should come with a 250 or 320 Gbs HD and will run on Linux. I'll definitely keep you more in touch once I'll have news.

Well not a netbook ... but

Well I know this is not a netbook but it sounds promising, it's a bit like the peek, its a small portable device 7 inch wide that run under Android 2.1 :

The Binatone :



It won't have a touchscreen but it will have QWERTY keyboard and a battery lifetime of over 6 hours and it could fit in your pocket !

It should cost around 150 €. Do you like it ?

Not really a netbook but quite nifty !

I know it's not really a netbook ... but it looks pretty nice ... it's called the Peek :

What is it ? Basicly it is something that just let you connect to your emails and let you send an unlimited number of e-mails. It should arrive in Europe soon. It's great because in Europe the roaming fees are just awful and if you travel a lot that small gadget could let you save a small fortune.

I don't really know it specs but here are some pictures :





As you can see it will be available in a lot of colors, which one would be your favorite ?

Personally I kinda like the pink one : 


EEE PC 1011 PX

Asus gonna release in France a small netbook running on Ubuntu : the Asus EEE PC1011 PX :

You will have to notice the fantastic 500 gb HD at 7400 RPM instead of only 5200 on most laptop.
The integrated Radeon 6310 will also let you play some games ... In my opinion it is much better than Nvidia Ion Technology.
