At CES, Asus announced new eee PC's with 7", 8" and 8.9." I didn't see
any prices mentioned, but is supposed to be more than the current
models. Engadget  shows a picture of what it calls a WiMAX-enabled Eee
PC. They said no price was announced.

PC Magazine said, "To accelerate broad adoption, Asus will maintain an
entry price point of $999 for WiMAx ready laptops, although expect the
eeePC to run higher than the previous $300-$400 entry point."

I don't understand whether this means the WiMAX-enabled eeePC will
cost $999 or whether it will be less than that.
