Overprice? thanks to the tax rate in UK


Not sure whether the reviewer know about this, this Eee Box sell at £117 (7500 New Taiwan Dollar) at Taiwan early August, the price now would be dropping a bit.

Rather than saying overprice, I would say that Asus clearly show no attention and discrimate against the potential buyer in UK. Thanks to the tax rate in the UK, it brings the price even further - 220, also twice as much as the price in Asia. What a shame.

Overview

ASUS Eee PC 1000

Editors rating
Rating: 8.8
Verdict

The Eee PC 1000 is a fabulous machine. It precariously straddles the line between netbook and ultraportable, but it's well equipped, well designed and great for anyone requiring a highly portable notebook.

Typical price

£ 349

Nokia E63

Review Although it's missing some features (chiefly HSDPA and GPS), Nokia's E63 is a well-thought-out, ergonomic and affordable smartphone.
