Just Keep Learning More and More about the Asus Eee PC

According to unproven sources, it seems that the specs on the Asus Eee PC keep getting more and more detailed (or maybe "accurate" is a better word). So far, looks like there will be two models, with prices ranging from $269 on the low-end model and $399 on the high-end. Specs follow:
- 7-inch display
- 2GB of flash storage, 4GB on the high-end model
- 4- or 6-cell battery
- Wi-Fi
- 512MB RAM
You’ll have your choice of black or white cases. And remember: all of this hasn’t been verified by Asus, so it could be the polar opposite of what actually ships.

Now Sirius Release New Radio – Stiletto 2

Okay, I’m going to go ahead and make the assumption that I’m behind the times, and that both XM and Sirius are designing radios that will work with both systems. Or, that when the merger’s complete, there will be only one system. Because they both continue to release new, competing radios. This one, the Stiletto 2, has been talked about forever, but it’s finally been introduced. Some nice specs:
- Capture up to 100 hours of programming
- "Love" button to capture the current song
- Wi-Fi
- Also plays MP3 and WMA files
- microSD slot
- 2.2 inch color display
- Up to 20 hours of use
It ain’t cheap, at $349.99. But it’s sure purty!

I have used 3 Stilitto 2 radios. I purchased one, took it back, got another, sent it to Sirius ...

Fujitsu Does Have a Way with Tablets – T2010 is Nifty

As usual, Fujitsu has cooked up some delicious Tablet PC goodness in the upcoming T2010. Check out the specs:
- Intel Core 2 Duo ULV at 1.06GHz or 1.2GHz
- Intel GM 965 Chipset (so, Santa Rosa)
- Up to 4GB of DDR2-533 RAM
- 12.1" WXGA Screen with LED backlight
- Intel GMA X1300 graphics (so, not a gaming machine, obviously)
- Up to 120GB SATA
- Wi-Fi 802.11a/g/n or a/b/g
- Bluetooth
- Gigabit Ethernet
- Standard battery life of up to 9 hours, up to 11 hours with extended version
- 3.31 lbs
No, for those who are into tablets, those are some nice specs. Just the right size, performance would be fine for a Tablet (which to should never be expected to be a decent gaming machine), and a screen that’s high enough resolution without being blinding. Pricing will start at $1,599, and I’m sure go up from there with the appropriate options.

NAS Server Options Continue to Grow with Lanner NS04-3100

Four SATA bays is better than two, I’d say, and so the Lanner NS04-3100 already has something over the QNAP TS-209 reviewed earlier (and, they even share the same hokey naming schemes). And, it looks like it will compete fairly well on features, as well, with Wi-Fi, iTunes server, UPnP AV media server, DLNA, and support for all meaningful RAID configurations and JBOD. Looks like the NAS server market is becoming enticingly competitive. Pricing and availability information is pending.
