It looks like the release of another Eee PC competitor and a major one at that slipped into the wires of our ultraportable-netbook-loving-friends. The Acer Aspire one which, for its cheap price and yet comparable specs with the competition, could very well give both the Eee PC and MSI Wind a good competition is reportedly being sold already by some US online resellers.
AspireOne.net spotted one from eWiz.com selling for $383.14. This Aspire One carries the model number AA110-1295, featuring an Intel Atom Processor N270 (1.6GHz, 512KB L2 Cache, FSB 533MHz), 512MB DDR2-533 Memory, 8.9″ WSVGA (1024×600) TFT LCD, w/ Acer Crystalbrite Technology, 8GB NAND Flash Module, 3-cell 2200mAh Battery and Linux OS.
Engadget also cited a listing for both the Acer Aspire A150-1006 ($422.99) and A110-1295 ($399.99). Although the site says that you need to call first to know it stocks are available.
