Asus Eee PC 1201N specs get confirmed?

Pierre over at Blogeee has managed to get hold of what looks like some authentic specs of the French SKU of the upcoming Asus Eee PC 1201N. The good news is that it confirms what’s already been rumoured. The 12.1-inch (1366 x 768) model will come with a 1.6GHz dual-core 330 Atom processor and Nvidia ION chipset. It will also have 2GB Ram and a 250GB HDD.
It will come with Windows Home Premium and feature Wi-Fi (b/g/n), Bluetooth, a 0.3MP webcam, HDMI-out, three USB ports and weigh 1.4kg. Running a dual-core CPU with Nvidia ION will take its toll on battery life and so far that remains a mystery, although we know that it will feature a 6-cell (5600mAh) battery. The device will be launched in December, just enough time to get it under the Christmas tree. More details as we have it. Check out the specs (in French) after the break.

This has to be the ultimate netbook without question!
I was thinking of getting the Asus 13.3″ UL30V but that is limited by GMA X4500 graphics albeit with Intel CULV processor, and the HP DM3 seems to have the same limitations as well as being an HP which I have reliability reservations about. The rumoured ASUS UL30VT with switchable graphics as in the bulky 14″ UL80VT may or may not make an appearance – so the 1201N is the one for me.

So I take we have no idea when the launch is? I mean, (no offense) but Italy is a relatively small market, and I wouldn’t be surprised if a launch there doesn’t lag other markets like Asia, US, etc.
Do we have any indication of an expectation on this machine?
