W-Eee I’m now officially one of the coolest kids on the block! I’m typing this post on my Asus 701 (Eee)…

I’ve quietly been keeping an eye on the Eee since it was announced a few months ago. After all, who’s not interested in a $399 ultra-portable sub-notebook?

Not to mention, it’s a particularly interesting device if, like me, you’re a blogger on-the-go, especially with the built-in webcam.

After using it for less than 24 hours I’m pretty impressed, and so are others, apparently. The keyboard is surprisingly good. The screen is nice (albeit a bit small).

The trackpad is not that great - perhaps it’s just my Eee but it’s behaving erratically at the lowest and highest settings. I’m not too concerned, since I’m planning to mod my Eee extensively in the coming weeks/months - I’ll take a look at the trackpad then.

First on the agenda is to remove the warranty seal and upgrade the memory from 512 MB to 1GB! Then, I’m planning to add internal USB Bluetooth & HSDPA, and look at increasing built-in storage…

There’s an unused mini PCIe slot intended for an SSD that’s just begging to be used

So keep coming back, and enjoy my unboxing pictures for now, including a size comparison with the Apple iPhone and the OQO Model 02.

Congratulations. The Eee PC looks like a fun toy with a lot of potential for the price.

Just got one as well. Putting away by OQO1 for good. Question will be software support for this Linux device but come with some nice basics including making into a very usable Skype device.
 

Congrats, tnkgrl!

I got to play with one for a few minutes last Sunday....quite nice!!!

Planning on getting one too... ;-)
 

WOW! I was just coming here to see if anyone has tried the ASUS Eee PC 4G Notebook PC. I was interested in the Shift, but the price tag is too high. I'm currently using a Jornada 728, which I love, but it's old. I'm a writer and I need something portable. I understand you can upgrade to XP with help from the user manual.

I also read that you're upgrading the storage. I'm not a technical person. Is that easy to do, or should I wait for the ASUS Eee PC 8G to come out that has 1 Gig?

Thanks!
