8GB Asus Eee is coming
Nov 13, 07 02:35 PM PDT
It’s quite a surprise, but Asus is going to release an Eee ultra-mobile PC with a better display, more memory and storage. The good news is that despite the larger display (10” versus 7”) the computer size will be the same. That’s because the original 7” display is surrounded by a rather large frame, which really is a perfect fit for a 10” display. In my opinion, Asus designed it this way from the beginning, realizing that the real limit for a laptop size is the keyboard. How much will it cost? (not an actual photo of the 10” Eee PC)
Quick highlights
- 1.5GB of RAM
- 8GB of flash storage
- 0.92Kg
Update: this rumor turned out the be false. The 8GB Asus Eee has a 7" display.

..and if you click on the 'Best Price at' link to Micro Direct it refers to the 4Gb model and NOT the 8GB model..... pointless..

Hello George West, unfortunately, this rumor turned out to be false. The 8GB Asus EEE still has the same 7" display than the 4GB has.

Is this for real? Maybe the picture's photoshopped to have 10 inches screen.

Does anyone know if this one will only work in wifi hot spots like the 4gb, or if you will be able to add a card or use a cell phone as a modem?

I'm pretty sure the 10" screen is false, and the 8gb wont arrive till January at the earliest.
