The new model from Asus is said to sport a 12-inch display, along with an undisclosed tyoe of Nvidia GPU. But still, the Nvidia chipset will surely boost the performance of the new laptop, especially since Asus’ Pine Trail-only bump given to its Eee PC 1005PE didn’t offer much in the way of performance improvements and still can’t handle YouTube video in HD.

Asus has not yet given pricing details on the Ion 2-based Eee PC’s, but the Atom N450-based Eees are expected to drop in price to about $439 in the second quarter of…

Asus is still backing up Pegatron with the latter’s new smartbook; Neo.

Although still a prototype, the slick white smartbook from Pegatron, runs the Android OS on its 10-inch display. But it offers the Tegra 2 combo of 1080p playback and up to a full day of WiFi-enabled battery.

The Neo is definitely coming later this year, but the information on the price and availability, as well as the distributor badge, is not yet revealed. We do hope that once the Neo has been launched in the market, it had already fixed some of its setbacks, such as some of its creaky and unstable parts.
