Kojinsha mini notebook to compete with ASUS Eee PC

The well-received Eee PC by Asus, the mini PC with the mini price tag that Laptop Magazine called "the best value-priced notebook on the planet," has inspired competition, including the soon to be released Kojinsha E8 subnotebook. It runs on Windows XP, with a AMD Goede LX800 processor and 512MB of memory. Other features include touch screen (1024x600 resolution), built-in stereo speaker, memory card slot, USB port, and 3.5 hours of continuous use time. Due to be released at the end of this month, it'll be priced between $529 and $635, which is over $100 more than the price of the Eee PC, which sells for $399 at Amazon.

I have the first-gen model of this from a year and a half or so ago, and i love it!

kohji owner:

The mini laptop/UMPC is nothing new. The only new thing Asus did was make it cheap. Kohjis (and Vye, their US/UK rebadge) have been around for ages, as have other tiny laptops.
