Yet Another Asus Eee Update
The Asus Eee will not be available to consumers for $199, according to this report, but it will be available by the end of the month:
Eee PC will officially hit the Taiwan market on October 16 with the initial batch of shipments no larger than 10,000 units, said Asustek. The company will begin offering the product through Best Buy and Newegg in the US by the end of this month, while availability in the China market may arrive by the end of the year, the company added.
The pricing information is a little disappointing, but even at $249 - $299 the ultra-portable laptop will be a great deal.
