Black Eee PC 900 Spotted In The Wild
April 29th, 2008 by antyapyap on our forums has come across some photos on Flickr of a Black Eee PC 900. It looks really sleek, but also seems to be sporting the 4400mAh battery.

I didn’t think I should upgrade to the eeepc 900, but now looking it “Black” I don’t know, keeps me thinking. Would a bigger screen be that much of a difference cause storage with an extra SDHC could be the same and also be less expensive. My Eeepc is 4 months old should I change it???…

Those Flickr photos really are a mystery.

Because nothing sells a shiny, new gadget like a photo of it sitting beside a dead fish.

When can I buy an Eee PC 900 with a single 4G SSD and Linux pre-instaled and save 60 or 80 bucks to buy an internal HSDPA modem ?

anyone know if the black 900 is being released in us on may 12th or just the white??

Why haven’t we had more news about the 900 release in the UK? What about this black version of the laptop are they not as widely available? What stores will be selling the 900 in the US on May 12? You would think that a website dedicated to the Eee would have more news after the May 1st release in the UK….

@James
Why not research and post some news instead of complaining! This site is run for free as a service. The folks running it do it strictly in their spare time. I for one think it is a fabulous resource and really appreciate the efforts of those that give there time and effort to provide it for us.
They probably don’t hear “Thanks” enough, so “Thanks”

Welcome to Europe.
May 3rd, 2008 at 8:49 am
Comparing prices between US and Europe, you need to take VAT into account. UK VAT is 17.5%. Without VAT the price would be £280, that is US$556.
(VAT = Value added tax)

question…should I buy the 701 now or is the 900 worth waiting for?
May 4th, 2008 at 11:18 am
Daniel,
That is a question no one but you yourself can answer. It depends on which specifications are important to you and how much you want to pay.

I like the idea of 7 inches because of price and availability, but in terms of an ultraportable I had planed for a ten inch screen. So, I guess at this point seeing each in person might be more helpful?

Does loading Window significantly slow the system down (compared to Linux)?

Spotted in Japan no less. The Eee PC is not as prominent here in Japan yet. This guy must have bought his from overseas.
