$200 Asus Eee PC Coming in 2009

Asustek is expected to launch an Asus Eee PC model priced at $200 next year, the company’s president Jerry Shen said.

Shen also pointed out that Eee PC netbooks with 7- and 8.9-inch displays will slowly phase out of the market. They will be replaced by 10-inch models.

Eee PCs with a hard drive account for 70% of total shipments, while solid state drive-based netbooks account for the other 30%. The ratio of Eee PCs preloaded Windows XP and Linux stands at 7:3.
