“It’s a little odd, then, to be sitting in front of Asus’ Eee PC sub-notebook. With a Celeron ULV processor chugging along at 630MHz, GMA 900 integrated graphics powering a 800×480 display, 512MB of RAM, and just 4GB of internal storage capacity, the Eee PC’s specs are hardly awe-inspiring.

Sure, as The Tech Report points out, the Eee 4G isn’t exactly butch, and you might feel a little embarrassed about being seeing walking with it, but then again it is easy to hide. Weighing in at 2 lbs and taking up as much room as 2 CD cases side by side, the Eee can be easily taken anywhere, and is a lot more useful than a dog in a purse. Check out just what the $400 Eee 4G can do in their full review.
