New Images of the Eee PC 900A Emerge
Aug 2nd
Our ever resourceful friends at Blogeee managed to grab some exclusive photos of the Eee PC 900A. If you would recall, the Eee PC 900A was one of the 900-series models that were listed in the leaked Eee PC timeline we featured recently. The timeline listed the Eee PC 900A having an 8GB of storage media. Aside from this storage capacity, the Eee PC 900A which was previously known as the Eee PC 903 would most likely have 1GB of RAM plus the other specs and features of the other Eee PC 900 series models.
What is not yet known is whether the Eee PC 900A would have an Atom processor or Intel Celeron, knowing fully well that the original have the Celeron CPU while the 901 have the Atom processor. Should the Eee PC 900A have the Atom processor, then Asus is like killing its own product as certainly those looking into getting an 8.9-inch netbook might opt to buy the 900A instead. But of course the battery would still be another issue, although users can always opt out of the standard battery and buy a third-party battery instead.
Pricing, and other infos about the Eee PC 900A are not yet available.

Sylvana to Release the G Netbook MESO and G Netbook MAGNI Soon
Aug 2nd
Aside from new entrant to the netbook market, Sylavana’s plan to release an 8.9-inch netbook called the g Netbook MESO, we now also learned that the company is also releasing a 10-inch netbook dubbed as the g Netbook Magni.
Laptopmag found out that another company named Digital Magnets has licensed their netbooks to Sylvana and since they are an OEM of consumer electronic products and accessories, they will be supplying the netboks to Sylvana.
Anyway, aside from what we already about the g Netbook MESO, we also learned that it will be available in 512M or 1GB of RAM, Atom processor, either the Ubuntu Netbook Remix OS or the Windows XP. And we’re looking at a possible $399 price tag which is relatively cheaper than other 9-inch netbooks that are available today.
Meanwhile, the g Netboo Magni will have a 10-inch display, 1GB of RAM, 120GB HD, Ubuntu Netbook remix and Windows XP.
Both netbooks are targeted for an end of August release.
