Asus unveils aluminium Eee PC 1002HAE

The Asus Eee PC 1002HAE is just another netbook right? Wrong. Like the Asus Eee PC 1008HA Seashell, this is an Eee PC that’s ditched the workman’s clothes. It’s now coated in a super-sexy aluminium skin! Read on for the 1002HAE’s full details…

The Asus Eee PC 1002HAE isn’t just another netbook in the ocean of netbooks that have been released in recent months. Asus has kitted out this mini notebook with a sharp, lightweight aluminium frame – apparently to make it easier to carry. Seriously, though, how hard is it to carry around a 10-inch netbook, hmm?

Spec-wise, the Asus Eee PC 1002HAE is pretty similar to its predecessor, the Asus Eee PC 1002HA. That means it’s carrying a 1.6GHz N280 Atom processor, 1GB of memory and 160GB of storage space. There is also Wi-Fi and a 1.3-megapixel webcam, to complement the four-hour battery life.

There’s no word on a UK release just yet, so you’ll have to head to Japan if you want one now. It’ll cost around £335… plus the price of a plane ticket, of course.
