Asus Delays Eee Keyboard Again, But Adds Capacitive Touchscreen
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 » -

MSI's eReader Will Have Nvidia Tegra Graphics in 2010

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] -

Asus AiGuru SV1T Skype Videophone Gets a Touchscreen
At the price of a netbook ($300), the first-gen Asus videophone was more for those wanting to video Skype without a PC (think Grandparents). But the navigation was fiddly, so they've now made the 7-inch (800x480) display touch-capable. More » -

Asus Eee E-Book Reader Could Arrive by Christmas

ASUS Puts Voice Recognition in 20-Inch Touchscreen EeeTop ET2002, Now Car Ready
