Dear All,

If anyone requires EEE PC's, WildKey currently has access to about 1500 devices @ £199+VAT Each.

For more details drop me a line gowild@wildkey.co.uk

We've got lots of exciting announcements coming up about the next phase of WildKey, so watch this space for our announcements.

In the mean time, you will be able to see as at the following events over the next few months:

Next week Bradford CLC technology Event & The Outdoor Learning Festival nr Leeds with over 4000 children attending.

We have also confirmed our attendance at the SSAT Annual Conference, The Scottish learning Festival, M-Learn2008 and of course Handheld Learning 2008.

We're hoping some of our customers are going to enter the X-Factor competition, and maybe we can persuade a few teachers to go for Dragons Den, and for anyone not booked yet, we've got a code that will get you a discount, so get in touch, and get your Nintendo DS!

So be careful wait for the 901 version.
And HP released the first opponent called HP mini 2133:

Hold on they have the asus eee 901 already? The official release date is 3 June!
But I'll probably buy one in China this august 

Hold on!
So for the same price and size what laptops you suggest me?
 

Yes and also look at the processor used: they suck energy like a baby sucks milk from his mother breasts. 
For Dell
Intel®  CoreTM  2 Duo Processor
For Acer
Intel Celeron 550 Processor
For fujitsu amilo:
   Intel Pentium Dual Core
Plus the irritating installation of a Windows Vista .. (this has no price  )

O my GOD you mean the boss of the IT department. I can't belieeeeeeeeeeeeve!
Let me search his name ... on the department contats.

nah, i have my windows mobile device - it's as good as an eee pc, and better in some aspects.

Hi zelld78

Windows Mobile as good as good as an eeePC... interesting but thats the great thing about us having choice and being able to pick the solution thats fits our own needs. Some call it market fragmentation, I see it as choice.

I see Windows mobile devices and other PDA sized kit and an ultra-mobiles, such as the eeePC, as being very different devices.

Not least as one will fit in your pocket the other one wont... Unless you have big pockets :-)

Would you like to explain how and why a WinMob device is better for your uses?

This is not meant to start another sort of religious war between PDA users and eeePC users but as an illustration of the differences between apparently similar devices and how an individual users particular requirements are better accommodated by a device or combination of devices.

Out of interest would the eeePC be more useful to you if it had Windows XP on it?
