ODD-Equipped Asus Eee PC 1004DN Nearing US Launch?
The Asus Eee PC 1004DN made its first appearance during CES 2009, and while Asus specified that they won’t be launching this netbook any time soon, it has just cleared testing at the FCC, which means it can now be used inside the U.S. The FCC certification also gives Asus a reason to finally release this new netbook, provided that it is ready for the market. The most interesting part of the Asus Eee 1004DN is its built-in optical disk drive, squeezed in on the side, which makes it the first Asus-made netbook that’s got a disk drive. It will also have Intel’s new 1.66GHz N280 Atom processor. No word yet on official sale release date or price, but we’ll be waiting for it and will update you when it comes out.
