Asus have revealed that their new Eee PC T91MT multi-touch netbook will feature the 32GB pSSD Gen2 drive from SanDisk. Asus chose this model from SanDisk’s offerings as it suits the netbooks low power needs and small form factor requirements.
As many readers would already be aware, this means enhanced durability for the T91MT because the SSD drive brings with it near 0% chance of mechanical failure as it contains no moving parts, is much quieter than other hard drives and uses far less power as well. It would also give a much, much less chance of data loss due to failure of the drive.
The Eee PC T91MT comes bundled with Windows 7 Home Premium and supports touch gestures such as rotating, pinching and swiping, let alone the fact that it can also be used as a tablet PC.
It also provides a 8.9 inch screen, weighs less than 1Kg and is of a very compact size. The Eee PC T91MT is quickly proving to be a very interesting and anticipated release.
It is currently available from Amazon in black for $532.

They need to make a white version available too. I don’t want a black 8.9″ netbook, it’s just not cute.
Amazon does mention a white one, but it is tagged as unavailable and I don’t know if that means out of stock or no longer in production. I’ll have to find out for you.
The white the one is the older version without this “pSSD” thing. It’s no longer sold and has been replaced by the newer version with “pSSD” but it only comes in black for now.
That’s odd — the earliest version I saw was a black-and-white two tone model…
I didn’t want a white keyboard because it would make every bit of dirt visible, but to each his/her own…
And again we have to wait in europa for weeks and weeks and weeks.
First delivery was 11nov….5dec …12dec…21dec…24dec…
Maybe 2011???
