Neo eXplore X1 Another Eee PC competitor?

The Neo eXplore X1 is now available in Philippine computer outlets for roughly $400, roughly $200 more than the price of the Asus Eee PC which is priced at $600. It doesn’t really look exactly like the Eee PC. In fact, it looks more like the OLPC with its bulky body. But the display screen is set at 7″ as well.
Here are the specs of the Neo eXplore X1:
- CPU : Intel Mobile Processir 900 Mhz
- Chipset : Intel GMS915
- OS : Windows XP – Starter Edition
- Memory : 512 MB
- Storage : 30 GB HDD
- LCD : 7″ – 800 x 480 color LCD
- Audio : Built-in-2-channel audio, speaker, and microphone
- Network : 10/100M Ethernet + 802.11 b/g Wifi
- Card Reader : SD/MMC
- USB : 2 x USB 2.0
- Battery : 6-cells Lithium ion, 3-4 hours usage time
- Dimension : 245 x 196 x 44mm
- Weight : < 1.45 kg
Compare it with the specs of the Eee PC, who wins? The only lowdown with the eXplore X1 is that it doesn’t have a VGA-out for webcam use. What do you think? Is the eXplore X1 a worthy competitor to the Asus Eee PC?
