Asus Eee PC T91

The first touchscreen swivel tableted from Asus — the Eee PC T91 that was announced by the company at CES in January, has been confirmed by ASUS for a late May or early June release in the UK.

Eee PC T91 is expected to sell for £449 (about $685) and will include 8.9″ rotating touchscreen display that converts into a tablet and a stylus and will initially ship with Windows XP and Asus’ own touchscreen technology. Other specs include a Z520 Atom processor, 1GB RAM and a 32GB SSD hard drive and built-in Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity.

Asus is also in discussion with mobile broadband providers to produce an Asus Eee PC T91 with integrated 3G mobile connectivity. This would ship for ‘free’, but on a mobile broadband contract.

No word on US release date, but Asus has already submitted this netbook to FCC.

Today HKEPC got their hands on new Asus Eee PC 1004DN with Intel Atom N280 processor, GN40 chipset and built-in DVD-RW Super Multi-Drive.

1004DN is similar in size to Eee PC 1000HE with 10.2″ LED LCD screen that support WSVGA 1024 x 600 resolution. Other specs include 1.66Ghz Intel Atom N280 processor, 512KB L2 Cache with 667MHz FSB, 120GB Samsung SATA HDD with 8MB cache and 4200 RPM.

There is no word on actual release date, but 1004DN looks like “King of the hill” netbook.

According to GadgetMix “The EEE 1002HA is a great machine which takes the all the positives of the EEE S101 and EEE 1000H. The ASUS took the challenge to produce a regular HDD-based EEE with the slim looks of S101. Are we happy with the final outcome? Yes! The 1002HA is great in performance and brings seriously professional looks. On the battery life front, it may not break and records, but with careful usage, you should easily get 3.5 hours+ of battery life.”

• Shares the same sexy looks of the EEE S101
• HDD is way roomy as compared to small SSD of S101
• RAM and HDD easily upgradable
• Feels expensive
• Smaller than the 1000H
• Zippy performance with the XP
