8GB Asus Eee PC Priced and Quasi-Dated

2:07AM December 2, 2007 | Mark Wilson

imgeee-pc_3.jpgIt looks like a Dynamism product listing has revealed about when the 8GB Asus Eee PC will be hitting store shelves and for just how much damage to your bank account. Listed for $US499 as expected, the tiny laptop featuring 8GB of flash storage and 1GB of RAM will be shipping Stateside in mid to late December. So yes, it’s still in Christmas gift territory for those interested.
It’s also confirmed here that, as Asus debunked already, the 8GB model will not feature a larger screen than its predecessors. So is the 8GB model still enticing? If you don’t want to void your warranty by adding extra RAM, then yes. But with its abundance of USB ports, the possibilities of extra storage aren’t quite as tempting as some extra horsepower under the hood. Is it worth saving $100 on the 4GB model?

    Hello, Any idea if this will still only be through Myer in Australia… also word on the street is that Myer only got the beautiful “Pearl” colour for the batch of 4gb models released on the 1st Dec. Will possible Black or White be on the cards?
