As planned, the Eee PC 900 goes live in the US right on time, coming in 2 versions: The first, running Windows XP with 12GB of storage (4GB Built-in + 8GB Flash based), priced at $600. The second, running Linux with 20GB of storage (4GB Built-in + 16GB Flash based), priced at $566. The rest pretty much stays the same, including 8.9-inch WSVGA display (1024×600), 1GB DDR2 RAM, 1.3 megapixel camera, MMC/SD/SDHC Card Reader, WLAN 802.11 B/G connectivity and more. Surprisingly, the prices are a bit higher than previous declarations but i guess early adopters always pay some extra cash. Both models are available in Buy.com and ZipZoomfly, so if you can’t hold your breath anymore, this is your time to get one.

[...] Asus Eee PC 900 has a new 30GB storage capacity version, replacing some of the previous 12GB and 20GB models. All three versions include 1GB RAM, WLAN 802.11 B/G connectivity, MMC/SD/SDHC Card Reader, black or white colors at your choice and the usual 8.9 inch screen display. In addition, two of the models will run a Linux OS, as the third one will have the XP flavor. Mind you, these are not Atom based mini laptops, so it looks a little pricey to pay over $500 when you have the 901series. [...]
