For one, the Eee looks like it may be the first really successful product in terms of both sales and execution in its niche: low-consumption, low-cost notebooks that offer substantially more than a PDA without also being that much pricier. It comes loaded with some fairly classy and genuinely useful features: Wi-Fi, a small camera, a cache of useful preloaded open-source software, and USB connectivity. The exact feature mix varies between models of the machine, but even the “low-end” Eee, which is available for $299, is a nice piece of work. And if you go by what ASUS claims, theyre practically sprouting wings and flying off the shelves by themselves.
