Asus Eee PC 1005P Seashell
I am quite happy with my Asus Eee PC 1005HA. So I was excited to see that Asus has a new Eee PC: Eee PC 1005P Seashell.
The 1005P runs on an Intel Atom N450 processor and on ASUS Super Hybrid Engine technology. It also has an Express Gate, “an ancillary operating system that boots up in seconds” that allows you to multi-task at a fast speed. Just like what I do and need to do all the time.
It has a 10.1″ LED display, an ergonomic keyboard, and a multi-touch touchpad.
It can run for as long as 11 hours with a 6 cell battery or for as long as 5 hours with a 3 cell battery. That’s a lot of work and productivity in a sleek, lightweight netbook.
Here are the specifications:
| Operating System | Genuine Windows 7 Starter |
| Display | 10.1″ LED Backlight WSVGA Screen (1024 x 600) |

In the Philippines, Asus retails these nifty netbooks at PhP19,900 (with a Windows 7 Starter OS and a 250GB hard disk) and PhP18,500 (with no OS but with a 320 GB hard disk). And they have a promo until August 31, 2010. You get a free ODD, an Asus Slim DVD-RW drive, when you buy an Asus Eee PC 1005P.
