Well for anyone can by apparently downloading the Asus World Magazine, when I say simple that could be an understatement as the download is 108 Mb in size and it is a PDF too!

One all that has been done the specs for the some of the more interesting Asus computers become apparent.

This includes the U Series or Asus Bamboo Collection, these laptops were first seen at the CES and boast the Inter Core i5 and even has the famous USB 3.0 installed.

Features of the brand new Asus U Series Bamboo Collection:

•U-series: Otherwise known as ASUS’ Bamboo Collection, the U-series laptops were highlighted at CES, where we discovered they would have Core i5 CPUs and USB 3.0 support. Well, that’s not the whole story. They’ve also all got NVIDIA Optimus auto-switching graphics between an onboard Intel GMA HD and the GeForce 310M 1GB. Oh, and forget Core i5 — these machines support processors all the way up to the 2.66GHz Core i7-620M. Highlight: The U30JC, with a combo Blu-ray drive and a chiclet keyboard that won a iF Product Design Award.

•UL-series: ASUS for “UnLimited,” you can read UL as “ultra low,” as in Intel’s ultra low voltage (ULV) processors that provide 8+ hours of battery life and let these notebooks stay cool despite being under an inch thin. We saw the UL80JT sport NVIDIA Optimus at CES and got hands-on with the Optimus-equipped UL50VF; now, the UL30JT now has it as well. Highlight: That same UL50VF, with an estimated 12+ hours of battery life.

No Pricing details at the moment
