The upcoming Asus Eee PC 1008P runs on an Intel Pine Trail Atom processor. The laptop hasn’t hit the market yet, but some photos have emerged. Besides the standard version, the 1008P will also have designer version designed by Karim Rashid. The designer netbook looks similar to a clutch bag with textured finish.
The Asus Eee PC 1008P is the upgraded version of the 1008HA. While 1008HA has an Intel Atom processor, the 1008P will feature the new Intel Pine Trail processor.
The 1008HA is one of the slimmest Eee PCs around. It has attractive looks and has been extremely popular among netbook users. But it has a major problem: it comes with an integrated battery which cannot be removed. But Asus has remedied this issue. The new 1008P has a removable battery. It also features a chiclet style keyboard.
The netbook will be powered by an Intel Atom N450 (Pine Trail) processor with 1GB of RAM and a 160GB hard drive. It will have a 10.1 inch display with 1024 x 600 pixels. Other features include WiFi, 1.3MP webcam, and Bluetooth.
The standard version is expected to be out in February in ‘Golden Brown’ and ‘Hot Pink’. The designer version 1008P-KR will soon launch in Graphite Black. The netbooks run Windows 7 Starter.
