Asus 1000HE

[rypt]

This is getting release in USA in 2 days time

Intel Atom 280 Processor (1.66 GHz, FSB: 667MHz) [this is the newer Atom faster than current 1.6 stuff]
160GB HDD
1GB RAM
up to 9 hours battery

Asus' recommended price is $399, but places are selling it for $365-375

Anyone know when this is going to hit UK, and at what price?
I'm expecting this for about £20 over USA price (as seen by the likes of 1000H), so around the <£300 mark I guess.

Reading some reviews it is 7% faster than the current 1.6GHz Atoms.

The only shame really is that it is still using the old graphics chipset as opposed ot the new stuff Intel are about/have just release(d).
Really got me wondering now whether to wait a bit for new Intel stuff, buy this, buy the nc10 or wait until Nvidia's Ion is out.
