Asus EEE PC 1008HA Seashell Netbook

Asus release the new variant of EEE PC, it’s Asus EEE PC 1008HA Seashell. The seashell name come from the beach with blue oceans, soft silk like sand.

With weight just 1.1kg, Asus EEE 1008HA has 10-inch display, ergonomic keyboard design, intelligent energy management system and multi touchpad. The specification details is not available yet and hopefully I will get it soon, so I can compare with the EEE PC 1000HE.

   Pros:
   1. Battery Life – It really is that good. I can get a real world value of 7.5 to 8 hours with the WLAN on under the power saving mode. I can’t even see a difference with the performance when in this mode.
   2. LED-lit screen – I was expecting a basic screen that didn’t look particularly great. I was surprised with the look of it, even at the low, netbook standard resolution.
   3. Keyboard – The so-called chiclet keys are very comfortable, and the placement of the shift key in the correct spot really separates this model from the rest.

   Cons:
   1. Windows XP – Yeah, I know. Most would say this is a pro. However, I passed the XP life-cycle on desktops and I’m now having to learn the intricacies of this OS. I wish I could have have them put the Windows 7 beta on it before shipping because I did not get it in time to download, but I digress.
   2. Performance – Not technically a con, but I expected a little more of a boost from the bus increase to 667 Mhz. Still, it serves its purposes as a netbook, and the upcoming performance boost in Intel’s chipset will probably decrease battery life by 2-3 hours.
