OK Asus, what the hell? I've drooled over your entertainment-PC-in-a-keyboard with wireless HDMI for months now. You said October looked good, but now it's delayed until early next year? At least you're making the 5-inch touchscreen a capacitive panel now. More » -

Asus Android Phone Landing Before 2010, Honest
I want to believe Asustek Computer chairman Jonney Shih when he says his company's Android phone will arrive "this year," because the more people use Android handsets, the more hardware options we'll have, the better the software gets, the more vibrant the App Market will become. Plus, I crave balance: the Garmin-Asus Nuvifone G60 was a barely-mitigated disappointment, so a solid Google piece is well overdue. But when it comes to Asus phones, release dates should be taken as tentative until the device is literally in your hands. [Digitimes via Slashgear] -
