Comments on: Asus: No WiMax for next Eee PC

Asus states the Eee PC 901 will not include WiMax.

This is smart on Asus's part, as WiMax is not widely used or tested yet. Of course, this could help WiMax's viability. But, I doubt anyone is going to fully jump on the bandwagon until more results are seen. http://www.custompcmax.com

Agreed with basketcase421, there is no need for Asus to jumble in a technology on their lowcost device that isn't even mainstream. They need to focus their marketing towards the most amount of people possible. EVDO would be a better option at this point, because of coverage, but honestly I would rather Asus keep the cost down and let me add whatever I wanted by myself.

Really, i think Asus should work on bringing down the price of the eee (the new ones are a little pricey). This would no doubt jack up the price even more. Glad to see Asus really making good decisions over their new "little star."
