Asus EEE PC T101MT now shipping, with an excellent price

Remember the Asus T101MT? The 10 inch convertible netbook from Asus with amazing looks and ergonomics? You could have preorder it for some time and it already started shipping, so now you can have it in your homes.

Read my full review of the Asus T101MT or you could just see the main ideas about this tablet netbook below:

The Good:

• decent hardware
• amazing looks and very solid build quality
• great ergonomic keyboard and touchpad
• convertible multi-touch display
• good connectivity: Bluetooth + Wi-Fi N

The bad:

• pretty sluggish performance
• battery life only around 4-5 hours

The entire package costs right now only $499. And you also get Free Shipping.

For this money, you are not going to get the exact version i tested back in February: this one offers a black finish with a matte case/palm rest and only offers The N450 with 1 GB of RAM and 160 GB storage space. I could live with those, but the fact that it only comes with Windows 7 Starter is unacceptable, as this version of Microsoft’s OS doesn’t support multi-touch so you’ll loose much of the benefits provided by the display.

However, a more buffed up version should be available soon, so stay tuned for more info on this.
