[The mouse that reads your mind.]

The special feature of this mouse, W1, is that it monitors your heart rate. With a sensor under the pad where people put their thumbs upon, it decides whether you are excited or relaxed by the rate your heart beats. Ah...just as expected, it "diagnosed" me as over-stressed after I did something to increase my heart rate. But besides that gimmick, it was pretty much a ordinary mouse.

為了攻下電腦領域的每一個面向，華碩 Eee 系列的新兵終於亮相，這是一款有點像 iMac 的一體成型電腦 Eee Monitor，原來 Eee Monitor 不是螢幕而已。

Eee Monitor 有 19 到 21 吋，內建電視接收器、起跳價格則是 Eee 系列相當熟悉的 500 美元。和老大哥 Eee TV 42吋電視會在九月時正式推出，另外還有兩個神秘的 Eee 系列產品 Eee S1 和 Eee K1，當然這是什麼我們完全不知道。

說不定和 Eee TV 一樣，我們會在華碩攤位某個神奇的角落發現更多 Eee 系列產品。

[Eee Monitor is here!]

Asus' Eee army is arriving fast. After the Eee PC comes the Eee Monitor. Oh wait, it's not just a monitor, but an all-in-one desktop with built-in TV tuner!

The Eee Monitor will come in 19" and 21" and will be priced at around $500 USD. It'll arrive at the same time as its big brother Eee TV in September. There are two other mysterious troops of Eee army arriving soon, Eee S1 and Eee K1. We have no idea what they are.

Perhaps we'll spot more mysterious Eee products at Asus's booth. We'll get back to you on that.

• 華碩的這一台是完完全全概念機，只是拿出來做概念展示的。就算要上市，也會是全新的設計。
• 概念機使用的底盤是 Asus G1（應該蠻明顯的）。
• 概念機使用的是 3M 的技術。
• 概念機的解析度是 640x480，亮度是...反正不夠用就對了。
• 概念機最快 2009 年底才有可能上市，即使到了那時，也要看技術的成熟度才會決定要不要上市。

筆者特別留下來試試Eee PC 901 / 1000 鍵盤手感，我想，在了解規格、售價的部分之後，大概也只有鍵盤的部分，可能算是個問題。

在現場筆者玩的感覺，鍵帽下壓到底時，在一開始以及最後，有較明顯的阻力，中間的感受比較空一些。因個人比較喜歡軟一些，中間有比較充實感受的鍵盤，所以對個人來說，在感受上還好。不過像以這種定位的產品來說，手感其實不要太誇張就好，更何況，也沒有像HP 2133特別加塗佈，其實就很好用了。反而是所佔比例比較重要，這次1000也是號稱漂準尺寸的92％，這樣說起來，應該是與HP 2133差不多大。不過，論配置，還是比較喜歡2133就是了。

We stayed behind after the press conference to spend more time with the Eee PC 901/1000, paying particular attention to their keyboards. We think that the smaller keyboard size is perhaps the last thing that's holding most people back from buying an ultra-portable notebook.

Our first impression was that in one key stroke, there seem to be more resistance at the beginning and the end of the stroke. I personally prefer a softer touch, but it still feels ok to me. But honestly, you can't expect this keyboard to give you the same touch as a full-sized one. Besides, the surface of the keys didn't get the same special treatments as the ones on the HP 2133. The size is more important here, and Asus does claim that the keyboard on the 1000 to be 92% full size, which is pretty much the same as the HP 2133. Nonetheless, we still prefer the HP 2133 for its better key arrangement.

顯然華碩懂得大小通吃，901與1000大小一看就有差別。原則上，若想要用手好好打，尤其是男性，就要選1000了。

此外，我們也借到了700，來跟1000做個簡單比較。

Apparently AUSU knows better to appeal to every aspect of needs. You can judge by their covers that girls would fancy Eee PC 901 while the size of Eee PC 1000 may be attractive to guys.

Check out the pictures first! We have got front views, back views, lateral views and even stack-up views!! We also borrowed Eee PC 700 for a comparison.

Please guys, do not get picky on the photos. It was a nightmare fighting for a shooting spot with so many people doing exactly the same thing. The crowds made something as easy as putting the Eee PCs together to compare their sizes a painful task. But still, we managed to get you all the pics. Cheers!!

現在筆者在記者會現場，雖然說是十一點開始，但到現在還沒開始。因為人太多了，今天提早去，還佔不到前面的位置。這個時候，拍照真是一件痛苦的事情，還要跟許多人拼呀

好了，記者會要開始了，我邊聽邊追，之後還有東西的

Our editor from Engadget Chinese is at the press conference right now and waiting for Asus to release more details on the new Eee PCs (drool). We managed to get there early and got a good spot. Some specs of these shiny new babes are:

1. 6-cell battery provides 7.5 hr for Eee PC 1000, 7 hr for 1000H and 7.8 hr for 901.

2. The Eee PC 1000H comes with a hard drive instead of an SSD.

3. Fully equipped with 802.11n and Bluetooth.

That's about it for now. We'll keep you posted.

運氣真好，由於世貿二館的 WiMax Expo 提前開館，在所有媒體都睜大眼睛和高官巡禮的時候，我默默的先到 Acer 攤位，果然沒有小筆電。再溜到 Asus 攤位，一大堆 Atom 版本的 Eee PC 901 躺在桌上任人拍照，實際的規格如下：

20GB SSD(LINUX)/12GB SSD(XP) 這個一點都沒變
HD Audio/立體聲揚聲器/陣列麥克風

更詳盡的把玩，明天早上11:00就會出爐，當然主角是Eee PC 1000，大家緊張等待之前，先跳轉全文看 EeePC 901 各式角度畫面，黑的白的都有喔！

The much-anticipated Computex 2008 is finally here. Luckily, before the official opening on Tuesday the third, we have the WiMax Expo section opening one day earlier, giving us a chance to take some sneak peeks before the Nangan Exhibition Hall gets crowded tomorrow (but we'll still sneak in as cleaning crews anyways). So first thing first, no ultra-portables from Acer is to be found in the WiMax Expo (implying that the rumored Aspire One might not support WiMax). Next, there are lots of Eee PC 901 equipped with Atom from Asus being displayed, with the following specs:

8.9 in screen Intel Atom CPU (clock speed unknown)
Linux/Windows XP Home (only the WinXP version is displayed）
MMC/SD(SDHC) card reader 1 GB DDR2 20GB SSD(LINUX)/12GB SSD(XP)
HD Audio/stereo speakers/microphone 10/100 LAN, WLAN 802.11b/g/n，
The models displayed are prototypically equipped with the Wimax chip. Those shown at Intel are with the WiMax Link 5150.
Bluetooth
1.30 Million pixel webcam
4.2-6 hr battery life (yet to be the best improvement over the old version 1.14 kg

Check back tomorrow at 11:00 am local time for hands-on reviews. Of course, the focus will be on the Eee PC 1000.

這該算是 Eee 家族的新成員嗎 XD？Eee Stick 簡單來說就是一組用 RF 無線電的外接分離式搖桿，據華碩的說法裡頭也像 Wii 的搖桿一樣內建陀螺儀和震動，所以也可以透過上下左右的動作控制遊戲。在現場看到的 Eee Stick 有兩個版本，一個是在遊戲區的橘色版，另一個是在家庭娛樂區的白色版。或許拿 Eee Stick 來當 MPC 的控制器也是個不錯的主意呢！
