The newest netbook from Asus is almost upon us.  Formerly known in the gadget-rumour world as the Asus Eee PC “Shell,” the 1008HA is a super thin and lightweight PC that is about to give Apple’s MacBook Air a run for its money.

The “Shell” is said to weigh about 1.08 kg compared to the Air’s 1.36 kg.  It offers a larger hard drive and longer battery life than the Air, too.  And at almost a third of the price, the Eee PC 1008HA may be the answer for all of you who yearn for the MacBook Air’s sleek design and portability, but gawk at its price tag.  Below I’ve listed some comparison specs for the two laptops.  What do you think?

Netbook or Tablet PC – no need to make a decision. Thanks to the new Asus Eee PC T91 Netbook Tablet you can have it all.

The  2-pound, 1-inch thick T91 has a 8.9-inch touch screen that hinges on a central point and can rotate 360 degrees and fold back on itself. It’s a tablet running XP, but at the press of a button you can launch into Widget or Touch modes, based on a Linux system. You can either enhance the touch interaction or just use the T91 as a conventional netbook. Features include a 32GB SSD, a stylus (tucked in the front), a TV tuner, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, 3G and GPS.

The Asus T91 will arrive in the UK in May, while a slightly bigger model, the Asus T101H with a 10-inch screen, is expected to follow later this year.

Since its launch in 2008 the Netbook has caused quite some euphoria and we hardly know anyone who is not keen on getting one. In order for you not to miss the trend, here some advice on buying a Netbook.

First of all, what actually is a Netbook? In comparison to the classical Notebook (or Laptop) the Netbook is much smaller, lighter and therefore an even more-portable computer. At the same time it is much cheaper than a regular Notebook and therefore affordable for almost everybody. While reducing the weight it also lost some of its capacity but for that price most people are willing to accept this compromise.

Let’s have a look at two Netbooks in particular: the famous ASUS EeePC and the new SONY Vaio P.  Which one should you choose?

• The advantages: The EeePC comes with an 160GB harddrive, which is quite impressive for a laptop of that size. It has an Intel 1.6 GHz Atom Processor and only costs £325.* The battery lasts up to 8hrs!!!
• The disadvantages: With its 1.33 kg is rather heavy for a Netbook and therefore not as convenient as it could be.

The latest model of the Sony Vaio series. Very small and most probably fits into every handbag of yours, perhaps even in a large coat pocket.

• The advantages: with a weight of 650g it is a featherweight. It is equipped with a 1.33 GHz Atom processor, a screen of 8’’, a harddrive of 60 or 128 GB and Windows Visa pre-installed. The keyboard is small but still large enough to use it comfortably. It comes with a great design and you can chose among several colors to match it with your style.
• The disadvantages: well not much can be said except that it is rather expensive with its almost £780.*

Now you need to decide what is more important to you: performance or price. That definetely won’t be the last time that you hear about Netbooks… At the CeBit Computer Fair in Hannover, Germany, ASUS already announced its next model: Tablet-EeePC with a touchscreen to come out around May 2009!
