That was quick, the Asus Eee PC T91MT (‘multi-touch’) convertible netbook only appeared on US pre-order at the beginning of the month and it is now shipping. The white model (T91MT-PU17-WT) is currently in stock at Amazon.com for $532 including delivery, I couldn’t find any sign of the black model.

The specifications of the 8.9-inch T91MT are similar to the T91, coming with a 1.33GHz Z520 Atom processor, 1GB RAM and an upgraded 32GB SSD. It also comes with Windows 7 Home Premium, which fully supports multi-touch features. Battery life should be good for 5 hours. Read more

Asus Eee PC 1001HA hits UK pre-order

Asus is set to launch a budget netbook in its Seashell range called the Eee PC 1001HA. The 1001HA has hit pre-order at Amazon UK for £199.99 and as you’d expect for that bargain price you get a very basic feature set.

The 1001HA has a 10.1-inch (1024 x 600) display, 1.6GHz N270 Atom processor, 1GB RAM and 160GB HDD. It only comes with a 3-cell battery and features Windows XP rather than Windows 7. It also appears to have a textured lid.

Other features include Wi-Fi (b/g/n), 0.3MP webcam and three USB ports. No Bluetooth on this model. The 1001HA is available in black & white and is expected to ship “within 1 to 3 months” according to Amazon. Check out some pictures of the 1001HA after the break. Read more
