Touchscreen Eee PC due next year, Asus promises
Because of their small size and inexpensive nature, netbooks are hot items right now. Asustek's Eee PC is one of the more recognisable lines available.
Users have wanted a touchscreen version of their favourite tiny laptops, and it's been rumoured for a while that future Eee PCs would implement them. But it wasn't until Thursday that the general manager of the Eee PC line for Asustek confirmed that they are coming -- next year.
Samson Hu, the general manager, also remarked that future models would get dual-core Atom processors once they come out, and that a new, lower-cost model is on the way. According to some reports, there are even more models in the works but details are scant. In all, it's a day of good news for Eee PC fans. -Matt Hickey
