Just put this up because I know that the sub-notebook has had alot of speculation and a review has finally come-out. worth a look if your considering getting a sub-notebook. The review states:
"Yes, that's right, after all the anticipation the Eee PC 901 is the first Intel Atom powered Eee PC. Running as standard at 1.6GHz the Atom processor is designed to be as frugal as possible, while delivering the performance required to browse the Internet, watch videos, listen to music and plenty else besides. This may sound simple enough, but the achievement is nothing short of remarkable."
"verdict
Brimming with features and with a new CPU and better battery, the Eee PC 901 personifies exactly the spirit in which the original was created. It may be a bit more expensive than the original and lack a more comfortable keyboard, but for a balance of features, size, usability and value, the 901 has once again set the standard. For the moment, at least, the (new) original is still the best."

I haven't owned an eee yet
I haven't seen one in person either
I'll prolly get one in a few months though -
It says that the Linux version has no dolby? is that because there are no drivers/software for Linux and its Windows only? or is it different hardware?
-
I wonder how hot it gets?
-
Probably just as hot as the 700.
I don't like the EEE PCs simply because they failed to achieve the original 299$ price tag.
The are even 600$ in some places,which for that money,is BS. Many other options overcloud it. -
the 901 model is top of the line right now ... coming 1000H is just too expensive for what it offers
