The Asus Eee PC 1008HA that wowed crowds at CeBIT earlier this month has just been priced for the UK. Read on to find out how much you’ll pay for this skinny netbook when it washes up on shore.
In case you’re confusing the Asus Eee PC 1008HA with one of the many, many 10 inch Eee netbooks out there, the Asus Eee PC 1008HA, or Eee Shell as it’s been dubbed, is a redesigned, superskinny Eee akin to a smaller MacBook Air, and it’s now had a pricetag slapped on it.
The Asus Eee PC 1008HA will set you back £359 including tax in the UK when it arrives sometime next month, according to Netbook Choice. That’s £30 more than the Eee PC 1000HE with its phenomenal battery life, but at just one inch thick at the fattest part, the Asus Eee PC 1008HA is even more portable. If a Dell Adamo netbook turns up though, that might be so impressive though.
We’ll be sure to bring you any more details on the Asus Eee PC 1008HA as and when, but in the meantime, you can check out the gallery of official pics below.
