Asus EEE PC 900, Sold Out within Hours

Written by Aldrin Cantos on April 22, 2008 – 6:30 pm -

eee pc 900 sold outBefore Asus EEE PC 900 landed in Hong Kong, a number of customers were already lined up and after some hours, the 1,000+ units were already sold out.

It was also reported that the Eee PC 900 also went on sale online at Yahoo in Hong Kong, and sold out as well. Source: PC World

Wow! That’s faster than selling hotcakes at the roadside, isn’t it? This could be record-breaking again. Will this hit in UK and US as well when it ships in May?

On the other hand, it seems like not in every country it will be a hit. In the Philippines, a retailer has already announced their pricing and most comments are not in favor since it’s too high for an ultraportable laptop. A soaring $800 USD for EEE PC 900 is not reasonable even if it ships to your door.

Asus Eee PC 900 is now available in the Philippines for $800

Written by Aldrin Cantos on March 27, 2008 – 5:34 pm -

Ade of My Asus Eee PC has reported recently that the Eee PC 900 is now available in the Philippine market. However, it was priced far over its target cost. AsusTek should act on this since it $800 for this ultraportable laptop could probably discourage buyers and opt them to find another product. The $200 difference is just too high and unreasonable.

Aw come on, the Eee 900 goes for only $600. And they were selling it for $800. That is too much of a price increase here. And I know that that some retailers are actually selling their products here at a premium, but I’m hoping that other retailers don’t follow suit. I mean, a $800 EeePC totally defeats the original purpose, right? - Ade
