For our friends in the U.S. who have been eagerly anticipating the release of the Asus Eee PC 900, you have more reason to rejoice. Crave has the scoop and the confirmation from their Asus contacts. Mark the date, May 12, 2008. The Asus Eee PC 900 is finally US bound. And the most important part of all, how much will it cost? A whooping $549!

That price may be a lot as compared to the Eee PC 701 but hey, you’ll get stuff such as 1GB RAM, 1024×600 screen resolution, and either a 12Gb or 20GB SSD, plus more.

The question now is, has the Eee PC established enough loyal American users who have purchased and loved the Eee PC 701 to make them buy the Eee PC 900 as well? That is despite the price increase? That would be interesting to find out.
