The keyboard on the Eee PC is very, very compact. Much to our surprise, the keyboard on the Eee PC is remarkably firm, though the keys are small and have a large degree of “wiggle” when pressed. Most low-priced notebooks currently on the market feature poorly built keyboards that show significant flex/bounce when typing pressure is applied.

True, the more expensive rivals come preloaded with Microsoft Windows XP or Vista and feature a range of superior technical specs … but our review of the Asus Eee PC shows this tiny white titan packs an impressive punch. The next closest competitor to the Eee PC would be traditional ultra-portables like the Toshiba Portege R500 ($2,000) and the Sony VAIO TZ ($3,000). Weighing in at just two pounds and delivering a performance level similar to a full-featured budget notebook, the only notebook that comes close to “directly” competing with the Eee PC is the Fujitsu LifeBook U810 tablet PC … which retails for more than $1,000 at the time of this writing. The design of the Eee PC is something truly unique in the market. In short, the build quality is quite high despite the low cost. Lifting the display cover you find the amazingly small keyboard surface and even smaller touchpad resting below the recessed display and speakers. The case seams match up with reasonably tight tolerances, plastics feel thick (though the pearl-like white plastics look cheap) and the display hinges are molded into body with the battery. The designers at Asus had no easy task creating an attractive ultra-portable notebook while also making it cheap to produce. Our initial hands-on actually proved it does more than I expected, but the more detailed review below helps explain exactly why I'm so excited about a $400 notebook. Retailing for $400 or less, the Eee PC isn't exactly a workhorse, but it will do just about every basic task you'd need from a laptop. The Asus Eee PC 701 4G is the new affordable ultra-portable notebook that's bound to be on many consumers' Christmas wish lists this year.
