As a follow-up, the Eee PC 1201N is one of latest Asus netbooks to grace us with its presence. It weighs just 3.2 pounds and is boasting some interesting specifications.
It features the Intel Atom Dual Core 1.6Ghz N330 processor, 2GB of DDR system memory which can be upgraded to 8GB maximum and comes bundled with Windows 7 Home Premium. It also brings with it a spacious 250GB (some say 320GB) SATA hard drive at 5400RPM speed as well as 500GB of Asus Web Storage. Did I mention the NVIDIA ION (GeForce 9400M) GPU?
It boasts a 12.1 inch screen, which is a little bigger than most netbooks, but that compromise helps us in getting a larger and easier to use keyboard. For connectivity, it brings exactly what you have come to expect from the latest netbook releases; 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi and fast ethernet. Bluetooth is also included as well as a 0.3 megapixel webcam.
So if you are looking for a new hobby Eee PC for general use, watching HD movies or even playing some games which comes with very decent specifications, multi-touch gestures and a claimed 8 hour battery life, check out the 1201N. It is available for pre-order on Amazon and should be available early January next year.
The Eee PC 1008P has just made an appearance but unfortunately we are only able to tell you a few things about it. It is a 10.1 inch netbook, featuring similar dimensions to the Eee PC 1008HA. It can be had in very bright pink or gold brown colors. However, what makes this stand out, is that it features the Intel Atom 1.66Ghz “Pineview” processor, which features an integrated graphics adapter and on-chip memory controller. It is claimed to only need 6.5 watts of power.
Update: I have double checked and confirmed the fact that the 1201N can be upgraded to a handy 8GB of RAM.

Do either of these come with a Linux OS instead of Windoze and if so what does that do to the price?
Are you sure the 1201N supports upto 8gb memory, I only know of it for upto 3GB.
It does seem odd to mention 8GB of memory. I’ve seen a listing for 3GB also, but it has been claimed to be able to take up to 8GB which would be awesome. I’ll see if I can clarify it.
well it should be out before christmas, or anytime now, So i can test it out, since I do have a single 4GB ddr2 800, all I know is my s101H does not work.
