Eee Keyboard: An Entire Touchscreen Home Theater PC

We spotted some Asus keyboards last week, but none were nearly as potentially awesome as the official Eee Keyboard. Featuring wireless HDMI, it’s a “fully functional PC” with full QWERTY and a mini secondary touchscreen. Asus was vague as to if/when we’ll actually see the Eee Keyboard come to market (though we’re pretty sure it’s…

Asus S121 Netbook Packs a 512GB SSD (Optional)

According to Asus, their S121 12-inch netbook we saw last week features a 512GB SSD and 8 hours of battery life. https://gizmodo.com/spied-asus-s121-joins-the-12-inch-netbook-crowd-5119825 The 512GB option is predictably priced at “quite a bit,” but no specific numbers were given. The system will be available later this month.

Spied Asus S121 Joins The 12-Inch Netbook Crowd

Germany’s Eee PC News has spied what it believes is Asus’s new S121—der maxi S101, if you will—stuffing an Atom-powered netbook platform into a 12-inch form factor. https://gizmodo.com/first-asus-s101-review-verdict-what-we-expected-5060208 Specs and price are yet unknown, but the 12-inch netbook category is quickly growing, with Samsung and Dell in the fray, among others. If you ask me,…

Asus EEE-branded Wireless Keyboard and Mouse Look Surprisingly Stylish

While Asus has some interesting products, I’d never expect the company to win a design award. That said, Asus’ wireless keyboard and mouse for the EEE Box look pretty nice, if not terribly original. EEE PC News posted the images, but details on the accessories are pretty scant. And if the pics are correct, Asus…

Asus Nettop Eee B203 PC Getting a Faster, Cheaper CPU

We only just learned about the HDMI upgrade to the Asus Eee Box line with the B204 and B206 models, but there’s another update coming in the B203: A Celeron instead of Atom. https://gizmodo.com/eee-box-upgraded-with-hdmi-and-discrete-graphics-5101293 Liliputing is reporting via an Italian Eee PC site that the Intel C220 Celeron upgrade is pretty much the only difference…

Enhanced Photos Can Bypass Any Face-Recognition Software

BKIS, a Vietnamese security center, recently demonstrated that face-recognition security programs found in Toshiba, Asus and Lenovo laptops can be bypassed with a special photo. To enroll in the face recognition software, the built-in webcam on the laptop scans the face for prime areas, such as the eyes or more conspicuous facial features. The special…

Asus All-In-One Eee Top Touches Down In Taiwan

Asus’ long awaited all-in-one touchscreen PC, the Eee Top, is now out in the wild… at least in Taiwan. The 15.6-inch display “nettop” runs Windows XP and holds an Intel Atom N270 processor with 1GB of memory and a 160GB hard disk drive within its chassis. It also comes with a 1.3MP webcam, two integrated…

The 10-Hour Asus Eee: Big, Bad and Fugly

I’d thought that the 7800mAh battery for the MSI Wind was absurd, but one netbook fan got his hands on a $62 12000mAh battery for his Asus Eee. The result, pictured here, adds over half a pound to the machine’s weight and an uncomfortable incline to typing on the system. But it should offer 8-10…

Asus Announces 800MHz ‘World’s Fastest’ Smartphone

Asus is laying claim to the title for the fastest smartphone in the world, and there’s little reason to doubt them. The news, though, is hollow: P565 with its 800MHz Marvell processor is objectively impressive, but underneath the oppressive, unflattering veil of Windows Mobile 6.1 it’s not likely to blow anyone away. Carrying a dense…

Cow Dies Needlessly to Coat Eee PC in Horrid Leather Modding

There’s just no excuse for this leather-clad Eee PC 901 mod. No excuse at all. No—not even the fine workmanship which means it’s got an arguably professional-grade finish. A cow died needlessly for this, remember. Daisy, I think she was called. And it’s just a tiny, crappy netbook. If you’re going to mod anything into…

Asus Vento PC Cases Stack Thin and Fold Out

Asus has a pretty good idea with their new Vento line of PC cases. The F11 (black) and F12 (silver) simply fold out for assembly without any tools. While some may say that a preassembled chassis is still more convenient, the Vento design cuts down on shipping costs by 30%. That’s great for the environment,…

Ooohhhh: $200 Eee PCs Next Year?

On a recent earnings call, Asus explained some of their plans going into 2009. The big one? The company expects to have a $200 entry level Eee PC—which we assume has no Windows. But that $200 announcement is even more interesting when coupled with another announcement—Asus intends to phase out all 7″ and 8.9″ models…

Asus Defiantly Cramming Discrete Graphics Hardware into EeePCs
