This gonna be thinnest and lightest  Eee PC so far. Unveiled on CeBIT, it is only 1 inch thin and 1.1 kg light. As comparison, Macbook Air is 0.76 inch thin with 1.36kg in weight.

The spec pictures, provide little info about the detail of this slim netbook, such as multi-touch touchpad, 1. 3 megapxiel camera, Wifi, Bluetooh, 3.75G and surprisingly WiMAX, although this spec marked with **.  If this netbook indeed has WiMAX, its gonna be only second netbook equipped with WiMAX after 1000GH.

No information about the processor and pricing detail.

ASUS EeePC 1004DN: Netbook with DVD drive

1004dn 2 ASUS EeePC 1004DN: Netbook with DVD drive

One thing popped out into my mind when netbook being mentioned to me is, it is low end notebook without optical drive. But not anymore as the new ASUS EeePC 1004DN is equipped with DVD drive . I agree on the fact that optical drive is rarely being used, but on certain circumstances,  it is extremely useful to restore the system to order in case anything wrong happen to the OS.

These pictures should give you idea that this machine is truly beauty, stark contrast with the EeePC initial model. It is powered by 1.66GHz Intel Atom N280, 1GB RAM and 160GB hard disk. Other main features are including 1.3-megapixel webcam, 3 USB 2.0 ports, WiFi, Bluetooth, VGA outpu, 8-in-1 card reader and run on Win XP.

No further info available even on the Asus global site. So don’t expect this machine to be around that soon including here in Malaysia

pic1 Dell Mini 9 and Maxis Broadband package drop price to RM89 permonth

When Dell Mini 9 with Maxis 3G package unveiled last November, interested users have to pay RM99 for 24 months period, totals to RM2738 inclusive of 6 months Maxis broadband subscription. 

It appears that Maxis has slashed the price little bit now (not sure when it started). Similar package now priced at RM89 x 24 month, totals to RM2136. 

Could this is due to the competition or Maxis is trying to clear the stock before Mini 10 coming in soon? What do you think?

The new promotion on HP Mini 2133 notebook line item that I spot on today newspaper is very attractive.

The lowest spec, which is powered by Via C7-M Processor 1GHz and run on Linux OS is starting only at RM1099. Its slightly powerful sibling powered by similar processor with different clock speed which at 1.2Ghz and run on Windows XP started at RM1499. For comparison, when it was first released last year, it sold at around RM1500/USD499 and above.

See other specifications below.

What make this deal more sweet, it comes with free 160 GB Western Digital external hardisk. From the external looks, this is WD Element that I bought for RM169 during last PC Fair.

To me, this is a bargain except that HP Mini 2133 Notebook is only powered by VIA Chip. But it still worth buying, if you need beautifully designed netbook with with budget around 1k

The way the promotion currently on run, with all this aggressive pricing, seems indicating that HP is trying to get rid of this model as soon possible,  to make way for a new netbook lines powered by a Intel Atom n280?
