| Asustek to Release Eee PC Notebooks for High-End Markets The president of Asustek Computer, Jerry Shen, has confirmed at a news-conference in Taipei, Taiwan, that the company plans to launch Eee PC-branded mobile computers for higher-end market segments. The launch of such systems will considerably expand markets that Asus may address with its trendy Eee-branded devices. As revealed earlier this week, Asustek Computer plans to release Pro Fashion and Ultimate (S-series) families of Asus Eee PC notebooks aiming at $700 - $900 price-points. The systems will feature 10.1” LED backlit screens, 120GB hard disk drives (HDDs) or 32GB solid state drives (SSDs) and will work for 4-5 hours, DigiTimes web-site quotes Mr. Shen as saying. http://www.xbitlabs.com/news/mobile/...President.html

| So basically, they're going to kill off their other laptop lines and use EEE PC for all their products just to make use of the popular name... confusing?

| Sounds like it. I'm just hoping their high-end laptops have a bit more style than the Eee. They don't have to be Voodoo Envy slick, but it'd be nice if they came close. |
