It makes a change to see a new line from Asus it must be at least a couple weeks since the last one, but seriously, news is coming out that Asus will be launching the new Eee PC 1018P, 1016P and 1015P at the up and coming CeBIT event that starts in Germany next week!
These machines are going to be an updated version of the Eee PC 100P, these latest additions to the Asus family will come with an alleged fourteen hours worth of battery life, which has got to be worth looking at.
The only problem with information like this is the fact that there is always not enough info and so we will have to wait until next week for the full facts hopefully!

You can never find a seat when you want or need one, which is where something like this chair comes in very handy indeed.
This is a director’s chair that folds down small enough to fit inside its own messenger style bag. This makes it very easy to carry around and it is light too, weighing only nine pounds.
However, whenever you feel the need to get online to tweet something you have seen it can be done in comfort, in fact you may find yourself spending more time on the computer than anticipated.
Features of the director’s chair in a bag:
Despite weighing only 9 lbs., the chair supports up to 250 lbs., thanks to its rugged aluminium and steel frame and 600-denier nylon mesh seat. Unlike lesser portable chairs that sag as you sit, this superior unit’s seat and backrest remains taut, providing support during prolonged periods of sitting. The armrests have an integrated cup holder and two pockets. Open: 34″ H x 22″ W x 17″ D; Folded: 3 3/4″ H x 20″ W x 12″ D. (9 lbs.)

Laptop Advisor’s Guide To Bite-Sized Laptops You Can Take Anywhere
Last Updated Feb. 12, 2010
By Joel Durham, Jr. It’s hard to say where netbooks got their start, but one of the first popular models was ASUS’ Eee PC. Since that tiny notebook came out in 2007, virtually every major laptop manufacturer has scrambled to make something similar. Early netbooks, which are basically pint-sized laptops that typically weigh less than 4 pounds, ran either a version of Linux or Windows XP (mainly because Windows Vista was too much of a resource hog to run well on such low-powered machines). Today’s typical netbook features 10-inch screen (9 and 11-inch models are available as well) and runs Windows 7 on a low-power processor (commonly an Intel Atom processor). Because they’re meant to be used on the go, they all feature WiFi connectivity and some even work with 3G networks (for a fee, of course).
Netbooks are typically a supplement to a larger laptop or desktop computer – a cheap, ultra-light computer with a keyboard to toss in a backpack and have handy in case something important came up. But because of the extremely low costs, consumers on a very limited budget sometimes turn to them as their primary machines; they’re fine for very basic uses like web browsing and some office tasks, but users might find that the small screens and minimal power are frustrating for anything beyond that. Still, the sheer number of units sold speaks for itself: people want netbooks. Here are a few standout models, current as of February 2010.
ASUS Eee PC 1002HA: The Classic, Updated
A 10-inch display, a 160GB hard drive, and included 10GB of online backup storage highlight this winner from one of the first netbook lines in history. The Eee PC 1002HA runs for about five hours on a single battery charge thanks to SHE (Super Hybrid Engine), which sounds more like a feature of a Prius than a computer, but actually manages power consumption in real time to keep the 1002HA running for as long as possible. With a weight of about 2.6 pounds, this little netbook is easy to carry about and use to connect to the cloud from any Wi-Fi enabled coffee shop or bookstore. You can grab an Eee PC 1002HA for around 0.
Acer Aspire One D250: Pick A Configuration
Acer jumped into the netbook ring a few years ago and never looked back. The Aspire One D250 line features a 10.1-inch displays at a pixel resolution of 1024 x 600, Intel Atom processors as fast as 1.66GHz, and typically 1GB RAM. Outfitted with either Windows XP or Windows 7, the D250 is compatible with all your favorite software. Dolby Headphone technology makes listening to anything a pleasure provided you have a decent headset. Battery life depends on whether you opt for a 3- or 6-cell model (for about up to 3-6, or 5-9, hours of life, respectively), and maximum weight is 2.8 pounds, so a D250 won’t break your back in a backpack. There’s a huge range of D250 models that run from as little as 0 to more than 0, depending on feature set.
MSI Wind U135: Best Software of the Bunch
The MSI Wind U135, from a company known more for its components than its computers, runs around 5. For that, you get a sturdy design, a great keyboard, and more. The 1024×600 backlit LCD screen is bright and friendly. Its standout feature set isn’t its hardware (you’re saddled with a 1-button mouse if you opt for this model), but its software. The U135 comes with Microsoft Works, and, to its credit, a kid-friendly Web browser called Kido’z which makes the Web safe and fun for tots.

A new netbook being released in China is not necessarily breaking news, as they appear to knock them out in no time at all, some being better than others.
However, this is a Teclast X8, it is made in China by a Chinese computer manufacturer and it does not seem to be too bad at all for a 10.2 inch mini laptop with all the trimmings.
Features of the Teclast X8 mini laptop:
10.2-inch 1024 x 600 display, a 1.6GHz Intel Atom N270 processor, a 1GB RAM, a 160GB hard drive, a 1.3MP webcam, a memory card reader, Wi-Fi, 3x USB ports and runs on either Windows XP or Windows 7 OS.

As we slip slowly, out of winter the need for hot soup and coffee will subside and soon it will be the time for a nice cool can of soda. However, these drinks are strange because a hot drink cools down fast and cold drink warms up just as quickly.
Therefore, to keep a drink at the right temperature this simple USB powered pad will do the job to a maximum of 133 degrees and minimum 59 degrees.
Features of the hot and cold cup pad:
Drawing power from a USB port on your computer, its built-in thermoelectric module either warms a beverage up to 133º or cools it down to 59º. Its surface accommodates most coffee mugs (will not work with Styrofoam cups) and 12 oz. soda cans. Works on any PC or Mac. 5″ L x 3″ W x 1″ H. (1 lb.)

Acer Laptop and Netbook Computers
A Fast-Growing Brand On The Cutting Edge of Energy Efficiency
Last Updated Feb. 25, 2010
By Johanna Maaghul Acer is out to conquer the world of computing. These aren’t the most solidly built machines on the market, but consumers are snapping them up fast: Acer sold more units in 2009 than any other laptop manufacturer besides Dell. That’s quite a feat, and they’re aggressively pursuing the top spot in 2010. They have been proactive in the netbook wave as well as the effort to make portable computers more energy efficient. The Aspire One netbook is among the best, with an expected 10 hours of battery life. Acer’s Timeline laptop series is also impressive, promising up to 8 hours of battery life, the best of any mainstream notebook. They’ve also announced tentative plans to jump into the emerging tablet category sometime in summer 2010. Even if their computers aren’t our favorite, we like their moxie.
Aspire Series: All Your Home Computing Needs
The Acer Aspire series is the broad catch-all tag for any of their personal use (as opposed to business-use) laptops. As you’ll see below, this line includes netbooks, mainstream notebooks, and desktop replacement machines. Some of our favorite Aspire models recently have been the 15.6-inch Aspire AS5740 and the 17.3-inch Aspire AS7740, two i3/i5 processor powered machines starting at under 0 (we previously reported on these computers here). These are great for users who need to do everyday tasks (Microsoft Office, web browsing, downloading music and watching movies too) as well as tasks that require extra power, like light gaming or photo editing.
Aspire Timeline Series: Keeps Going And Going
Acer claims that the Aspire Timeline series has the longest battery life of any mainstream laptop on the market. For users who need to work for an extended period of time away from an outlet, these energy-efficient machines can last up to 8 hours on a single charge — that’s enough to last for an entire trans-Atlantic flight and a few hours at the hotel while you struggle to find the right voltage adapter. Acer has chosen components that consume 40 percent less energy than traditional laptops, including ultra-low-voltage processors and LED-backlit LCD panels (which also happen to be super-thin). Even without considering the long-lasting battery, this is a great pick for someone who wants something just a bit lighter (though significantly less powerful) than similar mainstream models. Travelers and mobile-office users, take note. Try the Acer Aspire 4810, weighing in at just 4.2 pounds, with an 8-hour battery life, Intel Pentium ULV Mobile 1.3 GHz processor, 3 GB RAM, 14-inch Led-backlit screen, and 320 GB hard drive for 9.
Aspire One Netbooks: Sleek, Light and Efficient
Like any netbooks, Acer’s netbook line is great for on-the-go consumers who need a small, light, ultra-portable computer and can settle for less computing power and a much smaller screen than a mainstream laptop offers. Netbooks are nearly the same from manufacturer to manufacturer aside from the designs and maybe one or two standout features. The Aspire One’s marquis feature is its beefy 10-hour battery life. The rest of the Acer Aspire netbook lineup runs the gamut from underpowered but super-portable sub-0 machines with 9-inch screens to bigger, faster models with screens as large as 11.4 inches (right on the edge of the netbook/notebook divide, if you ask us). Our favorite in the line is the 10.1-inch Aspire One 532h, which features the new-ish 1.6GHz Intel Atom Pine Trail N450 processor for netbooks, built-in WiFi, and a high-definition display. The 10-hour battery life we mentioned is a nice touch for sure, and the whopping 250GB hard drive is considerably larger than most netbooks in the Aspire One’s price range. As with any netbook, no built-in disk-drive here, but at 9, this value is hard to beat.
Travelmate Series: For those Truly on the Move
For those whose travels take them to places beyond the neighborhood coffee shop, the Acer Travelmate series is a smart choice for a number of reasons. This machine has been designed specifically for the traveling businessperson with great on-the-go features such as fingerprint recognition security, durable components and 7-hour-plus battery life Models with the Timeline tag (see above) have an 8-hour battery life. Travelmates are also fairly light for their size; the TravelMate 8571 Timeline, for example, features a 15-inch display and weighs just 5.1 pounds. If you need freedom and mobility and your computer may have to take a few knocks, this machine is a wise investment. At just over 00, that TravelMate 8571 Timeline model offers a 1.4GHz Intel Dual Core Processor, 320 MB hard drive, 4 GB RAM, built-in 5-in-1 card reader, built-in Superdrive, WiFi, Bluetooth, and a webcam.
