BTW, I understand that one can pre-order eeepc 901 but do they state a delivery date?
I am actively looking for the eeepc linux version as it comes with the larger (20GB) SSD for the same money as the 12GB windows version. When I discover a supplier I will tell. I understand that GST for parcels coming into Australia applies to goods valued over AUD 2000.00. Would an imported eeepc from HK cost roughly the same then?
