Agreed.
As for the real topic, I dont think the 901 will do as well as the 701,
mainly due to stiff competition at that price bracket. I just saw a fully
featured Acer notebook running Vista [albeit poorly] for around AUD$550.
Celeron 1.6ghz if i remember correctly.

If the Asus eee pc 900 is going to be priced at $900 the only thing that
makes it different from other laptops is that it is smaller than a

Hi all,
For those who are interested, we are currently selling the Asus Eee-PC
701 4G at our online store.
We also plan to sell the Eee-PC 900 when it is released in Australia in
mid May. We can take details and contact you when it is ready to ship.
It sounds like a nice improvement on the 701,
