Hardware Early Look: Asus Eee PC T91

there is a rather large difference between an MP3 player and a laptop...

 

Two, one on either side.

 

What about a screwdriver? It probably won't have more than a year warranty anyway. (Under which battery will be covered.)

 

OOOHHH I want this but in a 10" model, oh I hope they come out with this in a 10" model ^__^

 

Looks like a good eBook or PDF reader to me

 

They will

 

^^^ oh sheesh I completely missed that part lol my bad ^^;; but WOOT cant wait for that.

 

O RLY?

Who edits the editor?

i can't wait until i don't feel like my aspire one is brand new and i can convince myself to upgrade. the netbook market really is moving fast.

 

It can rotate 180deg. on two axes (Fold and swivel). The sentence isn't as stupid as you think it is.

 

Im looking forward to seeing this!
shame it doesnt seem to be as modding friendly... but im sure we will find a way!!

 

...will the T-101 have a room-temperature superconducting artificial neural network with the ability to learn?

(sorry.)

 

I've been fallowing this for a while since I heard of this a month back or so, but I am really looking forward to this. There's more things I'd actually love to do on my computers, e.g. drawing and I could never get used to tablets. Also, just for a hobby I wasn't going to go blow around $1k for a tablet. But this looks like an affordable solution

 

Not as stupid as it sounds, as said elsewhere. The hinge allows the screen to fold from closed to fully open (i.e. 180 degrees) and the hinge itself rotates 180 degrees to enable the screen to go from face down to face up over the keyboard.

That was a typo - I and O are right next to each other - and was missed during proofing. Now corrected.

 

Any word on the Xandros/Linux version of these two machines (the 8.9" and 10" versions)?

 

Re.T91 and non-removable battery
Be very careful with Asus and batteries. Does anyone remember the fiasco with the mis-representation by the company of the battery capacity of the 900 series? The demo models had a battery of much greater storage capacity than was actually available on the production version(...at least in the UK). Company has refused to offer a satisfactory expl. as to what exactly happened. So be very careful...what this company produces for "demonstration" is sometimes very misleading and possibly deliberately so.
What capacity should the battery have? How about somewhere between 6600mAh. and possibly 8800mAh.

 

What about t101 is there non-removable battery to? and who can say what kind of disk will be in t101 - ssd or hdd?

 

Unfortunately, mine broke within a day of receiving it, and ASUS is not standing behind it.
