Asus Lamborghini VX3

“Impassioned Luxury,” that’s how Asus describes the Asus Lamborghini VX3 Notebook. And I agree.

Inspired by the Lamborghini’s design and performance, the Lamborghini VX3 is built with a luxurious style in mind. The notebook is strengthened with lightweight titanium alloy bar. The camera is covered with a Protection A sapphire crystal surface. And soft genuine leather with stitching to match that in the Lamborghini gives the notebook a rich look.

With a 12.1″ wide screen, it weighs only 1.68 kilograms. And it comes with these accessories:

An eco-friendly notebook? You bet! Drawing inspiration from their own motto of “Inspiring Innovation. Persistent Perfection,” Asus continues to introduce products to the market that just makes us go “Why didn’t I think of that?”

With a commitment to going green, Asus has introduced the new U Series Bamboo Collection. First launched in 2008, the new U Series reasserts Asus’ commitment to the belief that “protecting nature is a joint effort that unites us all, but it does not have to exclude innovative design, memorable style and powerful computing potential.”

The new U Series has sport smoky brown bamboo exteriors. The natural bamboo exteriors made more beautiful with the contrasting with brushed aluminum interior surfaces and a seamless chiclet keyboard. A beautiful contrast of woody elegance and sleek metal. Because it uses bamboo, the Bamboo Collection notebooks is light.

Bamboo is not only beautiful and elegant, but more importantly, a durable but easily renewable resource. By using bamboo, the use of plastic for the notebooks are reduced by as much as 15%.

The Asus U Series Bamboo boasts of a Super Hybrid Engine (SHE) with a NVIDIA Optimus technology which function to conserve energy and extend battery life. With the Syncables technology, syncing with other devices is easy. Plus it features USB 3.0 ports.

Yes, there’s a lot of power in these eco-friendly notebooks from the U Series Bamboo Series of Asus.

Engadget takes us to the Computex 2010 and gives us a peek at the Asus‘ EeePad:

Yes, it’s a netbook. With a detachable multi-touch screen. I am envious, are you? It comes in 10 inch and and 12 inch versions. It’s a netbook and tablet in one. Amazing!

Asus Ph will be launching this in the Philippines SOON!

Me and My Asus Eee PC 1005HA

Last week, I bought my first ever netbook. It’s my second personal computer but the first one was given as a gift. This one, I bought with my blogging earnings for 2009. As suggested, I bought an ASUS Eee PC 1005HA Seashell.

It comes with a Windows 7 Starter operating system. It also has the following features:

• 10.5 hours battery life
• 250GB HDD and 500GB ASUS WebStorage
• Built-in 802.11n and Bluetooth V2.1

And these are its specifications:

• 10.1″ LED Backlight WSVGA Screen (1024×600)
• Intel® Atom™ N280/ N270
• 1GB DDR2 SO-DIMM ( MAX to 2GB RAM available)
• Wireless Data Network WLAN 802.11b/g/n @2.4GHz
• 1.3M Pixel / 0.3M Pixel Camera
• Audio Hi-Definition Audio CODEC
• Stereo speaker

It measures 262mm (W) x 178mm (D) x 25.9mm~ 36.5mm (H) and weighs 1.27 kg (with a 6-Cell Battery). I bought the black one coz the pink one was too gay for me and the blue wasn’t available. It also comes in white which is not an option for me.

So far, I have been doing well with it. I needed around 2 days before I was able to adjust to the keyboard size, shortcut and hot keys. The screen is just the right size, and it processes fast enough for my blogging and work tasks. It hasn’t hanged so far, which was my old laptop’s biggest problem. And I love the fact that I can work for hours even when there’s no electrical outlet nearby.

The three USB ports is a welcome feature, so is the multi-touch touchpad, although I haven’t really gotten used to it yet. The camera works well, so does the speakers but I haven’t tried the built-in microphone yet.

I have travelled with my Eee PC and it has fared well. I am loving it. I’m looking forward to accomplishing more work and having more fun with my netbook.
