Well you might be wondering if this an UMPC, if you are looking for a smaller form factor (with 7″ or less screen size) then it might not be but for its size and price it indeed is a great candidate for our UMPC line up.
From the day Asus launched their EEE PCs, they have been getting a good reviews and press from all around. The most important factor being their pricing model. Laptop Mag has got their detailed review of the Asus Eee PC 900 series with Linux costing $549, which was awarded 4 stars.
The Verdict from Laptop Mag:
The second-generation Eee PC is worth the extra money because of its larger screen and beefier storage, but we wish it lasted longer on a charge.

Pros:
- Wider, higher-resolution screen
