Uhmm... the 900 is here, but please note that:
- It uses a bit more battery than the 70x series (8.9" screen versus 7" screen), plus the wireless signal is reportedly lower, probably because the antennas are no longer up in the screen bezel.
- Vanilla XP runs really slow on the Eee PC. An nLited version is recommended, and that still means you need a license.
- 900 is still the same machine with a bigger screen, repositioned antennas, and relocated speakers.

Better wait for the 901, or if you don't think you can shell out that much money, just get the 70x series. They are down to around $300 - 350 in price now if you hit up eBay.
