Asus Philippines will finally launch the newer edition of its Eee PC series this week. After last month’s launching at Computex in Taiwan, Asus is bringing here the 10-inch Eee PC 1000.
From the Asus website, looks like they’d be coming out with 6 shiny colors of the Asus Eee PC — Red, Green, Black, Peony White, Pearl White and Fine Ebony.
Specs include:
10″ screen at 1280 × 720 screen resolution
Intel Atom 1.6GHz
WiFi 802.11n
Bluetooth 2.0
1 – 2 GB DDR RAM
1.3 MP webcam
20GB – 40GB SSD drive
Hi-definition Audio
6-cell battery (4.2 – 8 hrs)
1.33 kg
Windows XP or GNU Linux OS
95% of standard notebook keyboard size
The suggested retail price will be somewhere in the vicinity of Php29,990. This is not final yet and will have to re-confirm this at the July 29 launch.
Other models released earlier in Taiwan but will not be available locally are the Asus Eee PC 1000H, 1000HD, 901 and 904HD.
You mean we won’t be having a hard disk version locally?
will this be much better than msi wind? considering this one got the sdd which does not with the msi wind.but the msi wind got a lower price though.
asus eee pc 1000 or msi wind? i’m planning to buy one soon… please help me decide. calling all tech freaks out there! ;)
tempting….
The MSI Wind wins in the price department.
I would say the very steep price of the SSD makes the hard disk a much better choice. I’ve been holding off buying the MSI Wind myself. I hope they release a hard disk-fitted eeePC 1000 here in the Philippines.
any idea when the Gigabyte M912V will be out locally? reviews anyone?
so, does it mean…the MSI Wind would be a smarter choice than the Asus Eee Pc 1000? I don’t care how much would be the price. still, performance wise… ;)
@ 1knife – looks like the Gigabyte M912 will be sold here locally. i’m hoping it pushes though
Yet another version of Asus Eee PC. Saving…

urgh. its really mind buggling. can’t decide which one is better. the asus eeepc 1000h or the msi wind. msi wind is very tempting having that great elegant looks, and that undeniably awesome specs i couldn’t resist. imagine 2GB MEMORY and 320GB storage, more expensive though compared to the 1000H. but the 1000h is more affordable and has more battery life than the msi wind.
other than these things, which has better performance, durability, and efficiency? can anyone help?
the one who posted above…that’s also my question.after jurassic years, still, no one care to answer!hahaha :D
the asus eeepc 1000h is better.. the wifi connection it has is really fast and very stable.. bluetooth also.. and the brand will talk for itself.. kaya lng .. ngsawa na ako.. kasi i bought mine together with my macbook pro.. i just bring this eeepc wen i go out of town.. once ko lng nagamit actually hbaha.. im planning to sell this.. upgraded na to 2gb ang ram nya..

what would you prefer the asus eee pc 1000 or msi wind?
So what’s the final retail price?
I looked around PC shops today; they’re selling the 1GB RAM, 160 HDD specs for P23,500…
In Singapore, most of them are going for 700 SGD (22k PHP) but with local warranty.
Does anyone know where I can get this for a lower price with warranty? Thanks…
Well said, finally a good report on this stuff
