Latest ASUS Eee PC E1004DN with DVD Due Next Month


Latest rumor from Digitimes revealed that the latest ASUS Eee PC E1004DN DVD-equipped netbook will be available mid-April this year with a tag price of NT$18,000 to 20,000 ($531 to 590). The Eee PC E1004DN which was first spotted at CES earlier this year, will have an Intel Atom N280 processor, the HD-capable GN40 graphics chipset and a 120GB hard-drive. Those same sources have also tipped the launch of the ASUS Eee PC 1008HA.



This amazing netbook, being just 10.2-inch, still finds space for a DVD burner, ExpressCard slot and three USB 2.0 ports, together with WiFi b/g/n, Bluetooth and an 8-in-1 multiformat card reader. The E1004DN was originally slated to remain in Europe and China only, but was spotted clearing the FCC at the beginning of March.

As for the Eee PC 1008HA, that’s predicted to arrive in May. No pricing detail has been given, but earlier rumors suggested that the “Shell” netbook would hit the UK in April priced at £359 ($517).
