I saw in a blog that it would cost 350$US...
No way that can happen. The EeePC is $399 and has nothing in it.
Take it with a grain of salt...
No integrated keyboard means the design sucks for me
wow! I was inches from buying a first generation samsung q1, then came the Q1 ultra which I still wanted even thought every critic said it was underpowered, just tell me when its available or where can I buy ASAP! as a musician I need a small fully functional computer that I can put in the pouch of my gig bag without lugging around a separate case for a laptop.
Asus is very a good choice for small things..
very great

It would be a barn burner sell at $350 and I'd be getting in line with the rest of them. They wouldn't be able to produce them fast enough. Look what's happening to the $199 iPhone.
1470euro, more expensive than most ultra portable laptop. you have to be a complete sucker to buy that
