ASUS Announces Eee PC 1005HA Seashell with Over 10 Hours of Battery Life

The longest-lasting Eee PC ever is now available for pre-order

ASUS, a global leader in mobile innovation, today announces the availability of the long-lasting Eee PC 1005HA Seashell in North America. The new model is the first Eee PC to offer over 10 hours of battery life for true all-day computing. The 1005HA, which is the successor to the award-winning Eee PC 1000HE, also boasts all-new Eee Docking software in addition to an elegant design inspired by the graceful curves of a seashell, making it attractive, fun to use, and highly portable.

All-Day Computing

The 1005HA is the most energy-efficient Eee PC yet, thanks to the ASUS-engineered Super Hybrid Engine (SHE), LED-backlit display and Intel Atom processor. These technologies combine to allow the 10005HA to run all day long, lasting up to 10.5 hours on a single charge.* The 1005HA also features a user-replaceable battery and an upgradeable RAM slot.

Extra-large Keyboard and Multi-touch Trackpad

The 1005HA employs a large 92% keyboard with full-size shift keys for an extremely comfortable typing experience. The large keyboard is complimented by extra-wide palm rests and a seam-less touchpad with a dimpled surface that supports multi-touch gestures.

All-New Eee Docking Software

The 1005HA is the first Eee PC to offer ASUS' new Eee Docking software, which provides easy access to utilities, software and digital content. It consists of the following: Eee Vibe, Sharing, Xperience and Tools, and all of these suites are easily accessed as the software "docks" to the top of the screen and is semi-hidden when not in use.
