Asus Readying Cheap Eee Phone
PrintAsustek’s CEO Johnney Shih confirmed to the New York Times that the company is indeed working on a new smartphone that will bear the popular Eee name. Rumors regarding an Eee smartphone being in the works have been around for a while now. The phone would be priced reasonably.
According to Shih, the Eee phone might “become an interactive control” for a wide array of Asus devices that will be part of Asustek’s vaguely described digital home. Shih envisions a digital home embellished with interactive mirrors. Let us hope there is more to the idea than his fecund imagination.

Good question. "Cheap" and "priced reasonably" and "low cost" (if you follow the link) are really pretty vague terms. I wonder what they actually mean by all that.
Oh, also "first!" = "I'm a toolbag!"
