Is that a complaint.?

VERY nice little computers - the keyboard is tiny; you’d want an external keyboard if you’re going to be typing on it for long periods, but it’s the perfect traveling computer. Battery life that is long and robust, just enough power in it to display movies that have been transferred, or to watch the translated Tivo recordings, fast recharge (which I /didn’t/ expect)... Storage expansion is as easy as tossing in another SD card. I love it.

If it was a Mac the picture would have shown up instead of red Xs ;o)

Watching this with great interest.

I think the Linux is a variant of Xandros...which should be very good.

A model without Cellulite feature would be even better.

Do you know the kind of pain generated by spraying five dollar a cup starbucks through one’s nose?

A model without Cellulite feature would be even better. I noticed that too. I'm guessing they requested a Model with a Cellular from the talent pool. Probably just had a bad connection, accounting for the confusion and unfortunate photo shoot.
Cool little Laptop though. And $299? Hell, I dropped nearly that much at a steakhouse last week.

Must have been a big steak or a cool waitress.
To: Ernest_at_the_Beach
LOL. Paid for myself and three other people.
And I'm getting one of the new fancy dan EE pc's. Hope they don't sell out immediately (as I expect). Sounds like ASUS learned from their cust feedback, adapted the product design and is about to roll out an improved model without even raising prices? Well done, if true. Thanks for posting.
