ASUS Eee Keyboard latest version gets video demo; might be delayed again?

By Chris Davies on Wednesday, Oct 21st 2009 No Comments

The ASUS Eee Keyboard saga continues, and we’re beginning to think it’s the company’s version of vaporware. At their latest launch event in London, UK, this week, the Eee Keyboard – which squeezes a nettop and touchscreen into a keyboard form-factor, and was first debuted at CES back in January – was conspicuous by its absence, with ASUS telling Electricpig that the device was still mired in testing; however, ASUS have also been demonstrating their latest version of the Eee Keyboard to NetbookNews, with nary a mention of release delays.

ASUS Eee Box EB1012 and EB1501 Ion-toting nettops get video hands-on

By Chris Davies on Monday, Oct 19th 2009 No Comments

ASUS’ latest NVIDIA Ion based nettops have been well and truly pawed over by NetbookNews.de, and considering that the Eee Box EB1012 at least seems destined for the US market it’s only right that we should take an interest. The EB1012 – and the ASUS Eee Box EB1501 – uses Intel’s dual-core Atom 330 1.6GHz processor, paired with the Ion 1080p-capable graphics chipset, with the key difference being that the EB1501 finds room to squeeze in an optical drive.

ASUS EeeTop PC ET2002 Review

By Ewdison Then on Thursday, Oct 15th 2009 No Comments

Back when we reviewed the ASUS Eee Top ET1602 late last year, we suggested it could be the epitome of a niche product: netbook hardware squeezed into an unusual desktop case. Now all-in-ones are more common, and so ASUS have returned with an updated design, bigger screen and more media-centric intentions. The ASUS Eee Top ET2002-B024C sticks with Intel’s Atom CPU range but now pairs it with NVIDIA’s Ion graphics chipset for potentially 1080p High-Definition performance. Check out the full SlashGear review after the cut.

By Chris Davies on Thursday, Oct 15th 2009 1 Comment

ASUS’ Eee Box range arguably came of age when the company announced the 1501, their first NVIDIA Ion based model. Packing a DVD drive and various video output options, we’ve been waiting to see when it might show up in the wild; that question has been answered by the guys at Newgadgets.de, who grabbed some live shots of the Eee Box 1501 at a press conference in Munich.

ASUS Eee PC T101H gets Atom N450, coming Jan 2010?

By Chris Davies on Wednesday, Oct 14th 2009 No Comments

The wire has been pretty barren when it comes to word of ASUS’ upcoming 10.2-inch convertible touchscreen netbook, the Eee PC T101H. Last we heard, ASUS had pushed its release back until September “at the earliest” and were watching sales performance of the T91 before finally green-lighting the project; now, according to NetbookNews’ sources, the T101H will make its official debut at CES 2010, complete with Intel’s next-gen Atom N450 1.66GHz processor.

Asus Eee 1201N, 1201HA specs hit the web

By Shane McGlaun on Monday, Oct 12th 2009 No Comments

Asus has been working to expand its Eee netbook line to offer products that fit every need. Asus isn’t content with only a couple models and has been fleshing the line out with machines sporting screens more akin to traditional ultraportables than the netbooks we are familiar with. Today the specs for the Eee 1201N and 1201HA have leaked online.

ASUS Eee Keyboard manual, photos, UWB details arrive on FCC site

By Chris Davies on Monday, Oct 12th 2009 1 Comment

We’ve been waiting for the ASUS Eee Keyboard for a very long time, at least that’s how it feels, so it’s good to see some movement happening over at the FCC. They’ve just published the Eee Keyboard’s user manual, together with a whole batch of external, internal and wireless-testing photos. Among the details there’s a fair few shots of the media-centric nettop/keyboard hybid’s UWB (ultrawideband) system.
