Despite Asus Eee’s ever growing popularity I have always felt unconvinced by the concept. It’s a cheap and highly portable device, I’ll give you that, but it needs some more work done here and there.
Asus’ Australian division has confirmed they are working on a Eee Touchscreen laptop version. The details are still missing. Is is going to be a clamshell based touchscreen notebook? Is it going to be called an Eee something? Is it going to be that affordable? Is it going to be 7 or 9 inch?
While we are all waiting for the WWDC in June, we shouldn’t overlook the Taipei Computex from June 3rd to June 7th. The Eee was released there last year and hopefully this touchscreen rumor will be confirmed in a few days at the same conference.
I’d be interested in a touchscreen Eee. If they manage to squeeze a hard drive too, I’ll be changing my opinion about this wonder laptop
