Second Generation 8.9 inch EeePC announced

Not a huge surprise, but Asus announced the Gen2 EeePC at CeBIT. All the reports that I’ve seen so far are in German, but they don’t really contain much information, anyway, and in some aspects even contradict each other…

Here’s what we seem to know so far:

  • 8.9 inch wide screen with 1024×600 resolution
  • 1GB Ram by default (but most people will upgrade that, anyway, right?)
  • 8GB or 12GB of SSD (there are some contradictions here)
  • higher price (399 instead of 299 Euro - no idea what that will translate into for the US market)

The information that I’m most interested in is missing. Which CPU / chipset? And when can we have it?

I’ll keep looking.

Thanks for visiting!
I hope this was helpful - if not, please leave a comment and let me know why! Were you searching for something else? Did I miss an important aspect?

    Hey man!! I saw your blog at clumpc.com!! Nice one!

    Pretty interesting. I was waiting for the 9” screen for a while.

    Do you know when this happiness will be available?

    Peace.
