Anthony's FRESH PLASTIC

Pointless Pairing: Eee Fit

2008-06-05T13:34:05Z

For eagle-eyed readers it'll come as no surprise that the picture in the previous post wasn't off a ginormous battery for the Eee PC. No, it is of course the Wii Fit balance board. Why? Why not? They look good together! Not the last of my po...

ASUS making a serious Eee-push in the UK market?

2008-04-29T18:57:48Z

Looks like ASUS have been putting some of the money they've been making with their uber-successful Eee PC into their UK web presence. Check out: EASY TO LEARN . EASY TO WORK . EASY TO PLAY . EASY TO WIN Yes, that's right, easy-to-win! But no mo...

N800 vs. Eee: The N800 is the tethered-phone winner

2008-04-08T15:53:20Z

Sometimes you forget how difficult it was to get some piece of software or hardware working. And, sometimes it's doubly difficult if you want to get one gadget talking to another. That was the case with the Eee PC, I forgot how much blood, sweat...

HP's Mini-Note "Eee killer" and what I said last night, I had no idea! Really.

2008-04-08T14:31:15Z

Check out this earlier post, one that I made last night: HP as well. So they dont just make printers! I joked about the reasons for why the folks at HP (and previous to that, Dell) were visiting my blog. Maybe they're gonna launch a rival to the...

Day 7 without a laptop...

2008-03-25T16:41:03Z

I've been laptop-less (sounds like some crazy beach somewhere, but I digress...) for a week now. Seeing as my first and only laptop was the ASUS Eee PC and that I've only had it since early December it's strange how I've become so attached to it...

The Eee next to other stuff

2008-02-28T15:18:11Z

Hmmm, delicious! Note the really old Ericsson and an NEC 808Y as a coaster. Neither can be classed as 'fresh plastic' but they were once tasty. Here's my Nintendo-loving Eee PC next to a real Nintendo DS Lite. Only one fits in a pocket thoug...

It was easier to buy an Eee before Xmas!

2008-02-13T13:46:59Z

I managed to pick up a pair of Eee PCs back in early December without much fuss. Our local Toys R Us (in the UK, just in case you hadn't noticed my username!) had plenty. Skip forward a couple of months and they don't have them, the neighbouring ...

Eee PC advert in French Cosmo: I've got a girl's laptop!

2008-02-12T23:33:03Z

There's an interesting advert for the Asus Eee PC in the latest French edition of Cosmopolitan. Blogeee.net has it covered (excuse the pun!) The advert would appear to be placed by French mobile phone operator SFR and their Eee PC + HSPSA modem ...

DVB-H (that's mobile digital TV) coming to an Eee, Wii, N95...

2008-02-12T16:10:55Z

...in fact almost any device with WiFi and a half-decent browser. You'll also need a special device that looks kinda dinky (a bit like a Bluetooth GPS unit or mobile modem) and be in a country where there are DVB-H transmissions. So not much use...
