Just noticed that prices of two Asus Eee PC Models dropped on Amazon.com. And, these are the ones sold and shipped directly by Amazon, not 3rd party vendors. All Amazon prices quoted below are from information on their site today (Aug. 3) in U.S. dollars.
Asus Eee PC 4G $384.49
ASUS Eee PC 900 16G $399.99
They’ve also got the new Atom powered Eee PCs at list prices but with free shipping.
ASUS Eee PC 901 12G (8.9″ Display, 1.6 GHz Intel ATOM Processor, 1 GB RAM, 12 GB Solid State Drive, XP Home, 6 Cell Battery) $599.99
ASUS Eee PC 901 20G (8.9″ Display, 1.6 GHz Intel ATOM Processor, 1 GB RAM, 20 GB Solid State Drive, Linux, 6 Cell Battery) Fine Ebony $599.99
ASUS Eee PC 1000H 80G (10″ Display, 1.6 GHz Intel ATOM Processor, 1 GB RAM, 80 GB Hard Drive, XP Home, 6 Cell Battery) $649.99
I think Amazon has a typo in the last item listed above. The 1000H does NOT have a hard drive. It is probably the 1000HD model based on the presence of the 80GB hard drive.
Brad: You are correct I did not read far enough down the 1000h product page at… http://eeepc.asus.com/global/1000h.htm … It takes about a 20GB SSD in the beginning but mentions an 80GB HD in the specs table. Thanks for the catch!
The 1000H does have an 80GB hard drive. You’re probably thinking of the Eee PC 1000 which has a 40GB SSD.
