Asus Eee Seashell 1005PR now available

We already know all there is to know about the new Asus Eee 1005PR having heard about the machine a while back. The main thing we didn't know about the new netbook was when exactly we could get our hands on one here in the States.

Asus has now officially announced that the 1005PR is available to purchase at major retailers. That means you can get it both online and in some retail stores. The 1005PR sells for $399.99 and in case you somehow missed the other coverage of the machine I'll run down the basic details below.

The little netbook has a 10.1-inch LED backlit screen with a resolution of 1366 x 768. It uses the Broadcom Crystal HD Accelerator BCM70015 for HD video. It also features WiFi, Bluetooth, HD audio, 11 hours of battery life and the Super Hybrid Engine from Asus. The processor is the Atom N450 and it has 1GB of RAM and 250GB of storage.
