Digitimes reports ASUS not taking anymore Eee PC 900 orders

Damian Koh | May 30, 2008

Believe what you want, but we are going to take this with a bucket of salt. Digitimes is reporting that its sources have said ASUS is no longer taking orders for its Eee PC 900 in anticipation of the upcoming 901-series launch at Computex on June 3. They even go as far to say that the Eee PC 900 "based on an Intel Celeron processor, was a transitional product launched to compete with Hewlett-Packard's (HP's) VIA Technologies C7-M-based Mini-Note PC, while Asustek waited for Intel to start deliveries of Atom CPUs". Ouch.

We are still waiting for ASUS to comment on this report. What's certain for now is that the company will launch its 901- and 1000-series of Eee PCs on Tuesday, June 3, at Computex in Taipei.
