I wonder if poor people will strap an eePC in a backpack, and walk around with a 19" LCD widescreen, that would be even more impressive.... > I like it.. if its not $4000 > > On Thu, Jan 28, 2010 at 12:10 PM, Steve Peacocke <st...@peacocke.net> > wrote: > >> For $380.00 I just purchased a eeePC 1001HA ( >> http://www.asus.com/product.aspx?P_ID=O2gIMUVTCKmZUZt5). >> >> This has >> >> - Windows XP >> - WiFi (fast) >> - 160GB HD >> - Long battery life (4+ hours on mine if I keep the backlight low) >> - built in camera (skype) >> - Multi-touch pad (pinch/zoom/etc) >> - A real keyboard - quite a good one actually >> - light as >> - actually useful rather than "cool". >> - runs all the programs I've thrown at it so far >> >> >> Oh, and I do also have an iPhone where I can get my daily allowance of >> "cool" before I need to do some real work :o) >> >> Steve Peacocke >> >> >> >> On Thu, Jan 28, 2010 at 9:26 AM, Xander (GMail) >> <xander...@gmail.com>wrote: >> >>> I can't believe there has been no chat about Apple's latest >>> announcement >>> this morning. >>> >>> Watch this video and tell me with a straight face that you don't want >>> one >>> yesterday: >>> >>> http://www.apple.com/ipad/ipad-video/#large >>> >>> Is this the coolest thing ever?
