Pretty in pink: Asus Eee PC 901

By Leon Bailey on Thu 22 May 2008

We know you can’t get enough news about Asus’ cute little Eee PC, but what do you make of this latest picture of the world’s favourite UMPC? It’s an Eee PC in... pink!

Okay, so it’s not real. But what is apparently real are a series of images of a black Eee PC 901, posted over at the ever-reliable Blogeee.net. These new photos of a black Eee PC follow on from a similar set of images posted just last week, apparently showing a white-coloured Eee PC 901. As last time, we won’t embarrass ourselves by attempting word-perfect translations of Blogee’s French captions but, if you want to learn more do click the Read more link below.

Both the black and the white (but not the pink) Eee PC 901 are expected to be released in June this year. Powered by an Intel Atom processor, the new model is expected to have Bluetooth; though tentative plans for WiMax compatibility as standard have apparently been abandoned.

Instead, according to Digitimes, Asus has decided to make WiMax available only as an option to contract customers. The Digitimes’ piece goes on to say that this is because Asus believes the WiMax market is currently not sufficiently mature. Sounds like watch-this-space territory to us.
