the new eeepc

Asus has launched the eeepc 900 in followup with their much acclaimed eeepc. the lauch is restricted to a limited region at the moment but is expected to be out in the wild by mid-year.

the price tag has slightly gone up but its much better in specs. here are some comparisons of the two models:

Specifications	Asus Eee PC 2G Surf	Asus Eee PC 900
Display	7"	8.9" Display, 1024 x 600 resolution (widescreen)
Color	Pure white/Blush pink/Sky blue/Lush green/Galaxy black	Pearl white / Galaxy Black

so there you have it! one thing however is that both models lack bluetooth.
