Further word develops regarding the Asus Eee PC 1008HA which we discussed here a few days ago. The Eee PC 1008HA is part of a plan by Asus to introduce a new netbook series. This new series, called the Seashell, is to comprise of a whole new design and be much slimmer than previous Eee PC releases.
Intended specifications are that it will be 2.4 pounds (1.1 kg), include a ten inch display and will have a 1.66Ghz processor. An interesting feature for the 1008HA is that all the ports will be hidden behind flaps, which will be used to give the netbook a slim appearance. Claims for battery time give it up to six hours of runtime.
The Asus Eee PC Seashell 1008HA has just been released in Taiwan. A UK launch is rumoured to be as close as next week, with pricing and availability details expected on Tuesday. No further release information is available at this time.

Im always confused with the Asus eee’s line up names. So is the 1008HA the next new model after the 1000he in terms of netbooks?
I believe so, yes.

Yes that is correct. Not to forget that there will be a 1004DN, soon.
