ASUS is going to release their new ION based EeeBox EB1501 by the end of October.Back in August when we learned that ASUS was launching a more powerful, 1080p capable EeeBox PC featuring an Intel N330 Atom processor and NVIDIA
ION graphics under the EB1012 model number. It is featuring a slot loading DVD drive (a much welcome addition) and a refreshed “ballerina-inspired” design suitable for display next to a HDTV or PC monitor
the New EeeBox EB1501 specs are the same as the recent EeeBox EB1012. That means dual-core Atom N330 processor, 2GB of DDR2-800 RAM (expandable to 4GB), 250GB hard disk, and Nvidia Ion graphics.Other options include 802.11 b/g/n wireless connectivity, Ethernet, 2.0 ports, HDMI out, eSATA and, an SD card reader, and an eSATA connection for external hard disks. An S/PDIF connection also gives you 5.1 audio. The device is expected to be €399 ($580) in Europe, and should arrive around October 22—when Windows 7.
