It was only yesterday when we reported about Asus planning to release more Eee PC units in the coming months. Here comes Asustek Chairman Jerry Shen confirming that they are adding more categories into the line-up, and these are the Eee PC Ultimate and Eee PC Pro Fashion.

Geared for the high-end market, both Eee PC Ultimate and Eee Fashion will have dual-core Atom processors and larger storage which will either be 120GB HD or 32GB SSD, 10.1-inch 16:9 LED Backlit LCD panel, and battery life of 4-5 hours. Said new Eee PCs will have a price range of around $700-S900.

Asustek is also projecting to ship around 1.5-1.6 million units of these new Eee PCs by the third quarter to achieve the company’s overall shipment target of around five million units.

Asustek hopes to release the Eee PC Ultimate and Eee PC Pro Fashion sometime in September 2008.
