The new Asus Eee PC 901Go has been unboxed and photographed by Mobile01 who have posted the pics up on their site.

The Eee PC 901Go (aka the Eee PC 901 HSUPA 3.5G) is basically a 901 model with the addition of a 3.5G HSUPA modem which is fitted inside the netbook to boost connectivity and a sim card slot for use with cellular phones, ideal for a quick, easy, hack free 3G connection to the net.

Einfach Eee have reported that the Asus Eee PC 901 Go will not be released in mid-September. The release date has now been pushed back to October.

Einfach Eee also has further details regarding the 901 Go. The 901 Go will retail for 399 Euros, which is only 20 Euros more than the non 3G 901. It will only be available in retail stores EP, Medimax and Expert among others. You’ll have to wait before being able to purchase it from the T-Mobile web site.

Signing up to a data plan isn’t necessary, but the 3G modem is network locked and so will only work with a T-Mobile sim.

JkOnTheRun have posted up a flyer from the press in Japan which gives details of the subsidized 3G service for both the HP 2133 Mini-note netbooks and the Inspiron Mini 9 from Dell. According to their source, the subsidy is worth around $370 if users subscribe to a 2 year deal with EMobile.

Looks like Japan are getting a really good deal on these 3G data plans with their purchases of one of these two desirable netbooks. Hopefully this kind of service will roll out to the rest of the world sooner rather than later.

Details are still coming in but, T-Mobile are the latest company to offer a netbook with a a 3G modem and data plan. With one of these you should never need to race to a wireless hotspot again to get online and T-Mobile are commiting to the service by announcing in Germany that they are going to be bundling the Asus Eee PC 901 with a 3G modem.

Equally, the details on cost and on the plans available is vague but, expect the Eee PC to be offered at a fraction of the retail price depending on the data plan chosen. It could even be offered for free, we can dream anyway!
