Running on Intel’s platform, on Windows XP operating system, and with 1GB memory, integrating a Solid State Drive of up to 12GB, the next-generation Eee PC will be more appreciated than it is now and Asus expects the sales to grow very fast after the launching.

It is Easy to learn, Easy to work and Easy to play with Asus EeePC but 8GB Solid State Disk storage is not enough when you want to do so many things while on the go, and to solve this little problem, A-Data introduced the S701 USB flash drive and SDHC memory card Eee PC special edition.

This adds 8GB more capacity allowing you to store up to 6,000 pictures, 2,000 MP3 songs or 14 -16 hours of MPEG videos, while with the S701 USB flash drive, that won the iF and Red Dot product design awards, you can share them all.

It started as a concept, then it became a prototype and now it is real.



We know already that it is an eco-friendly product with bamboo strips cover to suggest that, but the internal hardware parts list is not finalized.

What I personally like at it is the overall fresh look and design lines.
I am very curious about its price, as I would enjoy seeing it on my desk every day.
