ASUS has responded to the user complains that British Eee PC 900 comes with 4400mAh battery while North American Eee PC 900 were shipping with 5800mAh batteries, same as in the original Eee PC 701 4G.

As company stated Asus has special deal with different markets. In EU countries, Eee PC 900 ships with 4400mAh batteries but you will get a two-year warranty within the country you bought the Eee 900.

Practically the same situation as with a trade-off buying the Windows XP powered Eee PC 900, pay for the Microsoft OS and get less storage capacity, 12GB instead the 20GB found in the Linux version. A

nd question remains will European buyers would likely have stronger battery than two year warranty?
