The Asus Eee PC 900 provides the power of a full-sized laptop in a compact body with a larger 8.9-inch screen. Even with the larger size of the Eee PC 900 when compared to the original Eee PC, the new model weighs just over 2 pounds — perfect for students toting to school or road warriors packing away to Wi-Fi hotspots. And because it uses flash memory instead of a hard drive (with 16 GB of storage), the Eee PC 900 is optimal for weathering rough handling and sharing space in overstuffed bags.

- Tech Support / Warranty Return sucks
- The title says it all: Tech Support / Warranty Return sucks. It took several calls and all of a day to finally get an RMA. Asus has had the unit (PC 900 XP)in their hands now for two weeks -- I've heard nothing from them about status of repair or about the return of repaired/replacement unit.

- handy little computer
- This little computer is exactly what it says it is: small, easy to carry around, and with limited capacity. It is very convenient for trips, where you want to keep up with email etc. via wifi at hotels and coffee shops, etc., but don't want to bring your regular computer along. The battery doesn't stay charged as long as might be nice, but… More reviews
- Not As Listed
- This specific model does NOT possess the wonderful Asus SSD that makes the other EEE products so quick (even though they claim it does. I confirmed this with ASUS directly).
It has a 16GB SD card soldered in place. That means it's read/write speeds are ABSURDLY slow and this thing behaves like a laptop from the… More reviews
