ASUS ‘Eee Monitor’ on the Cards
First talked about at Computex 2008, the newest entry to the ASUS ‘Eee family’ is the Eee Monitor. This product aims to give you everything you would expect a monitor to provide alongside display. The monitor in the pictures looks to be 19 to 20 inch, has a fixed web-cam, a 4-port USB hub, but what looks rather strange is that this ‘monitor’ doesn’t looks like it has a D-Sub or DVI connector leading us to believe it’s a self-contained PC a-là Apple Mac. The connectors behind show an ethernet port, a phone jack, standard sound jacks (line-in, line-out, mic), and the usual power-input. If it’s meant to serve as a monitor, it must also double as a docking station, because otherwise there’s no reason to have Ethernet and audio ports. The product also features integrated speakers made by Denon. It also features integrated data-card readers.
