PC Retail Magazine confirmed today that Asustek is to launch a new low cost ultraportable laptop – the Asus Eee PC 904 HD.
The 904 HD will have the same chassis as the 10-inch models with a full size keyboard, but will ship with an 8.9-inch display reportedly.
“It will also feature a hard disk instead of a solid state drive that the other models feature, hence the HD after its name,” PC Retail says.
The 904 HD will hit the UK market “within a matter of weeks”, and will be priced at around £250 (around $500), according to an unnamed spokesperson.
There is no information on availability in the United States.
We assume this news is also a confirmation of existence of the Eee PC 904 with an SSD.
[...] Along with the 904, 905 and 904 HD models, Asustek is going to release the Asus Eee PC 903 budget-friendly ultraportable notebook, rumors say. [...]
