This isn't the first we've heard of the Eee PC 1001PX, but now that Asus has whipped up an official product page, we now know it's going to come with a matte-screen, which will be easier on the eyes when you're outdoors. And the carbon fiber finish? That's still there.
The rest is pretty basic for any modern-day netbook. You'll find a 10.1-inch screen, an Intel Atom N450 processor, up to 2GB of memory, 160GB or 250GB hard drive, 0.3MP webcam, 802.11b/g Wi-Fi, two USB 2.0 ports, memory card reader, Windows 7 Starter or Windows XP Home, and a 6-cell battery.
No word yet on when Asus will release this beauty, but word on the Web is that it will ship for $299 with Windows 7 Starter, while the XP version will only hit your wallet for $279.

I'm really glad they got rid of the "eee" logo on the lid for their newer netbooks. I'm thinking of getting one, and the specs/price on these looks really good.
