Asustek’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.
