Second-Generation Asus Eee PC Coming in April 2008

Asustek plans to introduce the second-generation Asus Eee PC ultra low-cost laptops in April 2008, DigiTimes reports.

The next-generation Eee PCs will feature the Intel’s Core 2 “Merom” processors. It is an improvement over the first Intel Pentium M “Dothan”-based Eee PCs, which are expected to hit the market this month. The 2008 Eee PC models will have reduced power consumption of 7W, which is down from current 11W. The computer maker could also remove the fan to save more power and reduce noise, according to the report.

Asustek stressed that the company is not ruling out the possibility of introducing a second brand for its low-end notebook products in the future, but this product is still under evaluation reportedly.
