    I guess Google does a lot better with European language translations than with Asian languages. I could actually read that review and make sense of it...

    It looks like it has soldered memory only, no slots for upgrading RAM.

    Well that could have been an older version of the EEE PC... I mean if someone claims to have talked to the source directly and they stated that the RAM WILL be user replaceable, why not give them the benefit of the doubt?

    Yes, its possible that its user replaceable as well, and I remember that door on the bottom of the EEE, just about where the RAM slot should be.

    Its certainly possible that Asus changed some major things on the road to production, as they have done with other models. I was just saying that it didn't look like the test unit had that.

    Also possible that it has soldered memory AND a DIMM slot.

    Also possible that the ASUS rep didn't know what they were talking about.... ;)
