Asus Quietly Releases the Eee PC 900SD

asus_eee_pc_900sd

Asus has quietly released a new netbook model – the Eee PC 900SD. As this still belongs to the 900 Eee PC series, we can immediately deduced that there won’t be too much significant changes from its other Eee PC 900 units.

True enough, the Eee PC 900 definitely looks very similar to the Eee PC 900 with both of them having an 8.9-inch display and a 900 MHz Intel Celeron processor, among other similar features. The only difference is the fact that the Eee PC 900SD has less storage and lower resolution webcam.

Another significant difference is the fact that the Eee PC 900SD will be availale in various color design including blue, gold, purple in addition to the standard black and white models.

Comparing it further with the Eee PC 900, the 900SD would also have a longer battery life, which is estimated to max out around 3.5 hours. The Eee PC 900 could only last up to 2.5 hours.

Apparently, the Eee PC 900SD is already available in Europe, as both Notebook Italia and Eee PC News are reporting its release. For other countries, we may have to wait for an official announcement coming from Asus as to when the Eee PC 900SD will become available.

    Just a warning to potential buyers. This version of the ’900′ has a slow SSD compared to the classic 900.

  • gareth

    will, where did you get that info from? That’s a real pity, an 8GB fast SSD would have been a decent upgrade to the 4GB in the ‘classic’.

    I got the EeePC 900SD and its soooo cuute! Though the webcam resolution isn’t very good. There is a range of colours to choose from. No, it doesn’t need a modem. I use a sim card that gets loaded every month for $39.90. No, that antenna crap is a load of bullsh*t!

    Any questions? then ask the now all guy who wrote this review thingy! I’m pretty sure he can tell you all the CONS of this cute new, portable netbook
