If you live in Taiwan, you’re in luck as netbook prices just won’t stop falling! Hewlett-Packard, and Acer have dropped their netbook costs in the country, and now its Asustek Computer’s turn, with fresh plans to lower prices on some Eee PC models to meet its annual shipment goal of five million units and also to clear out inventory of some older models.
The Eee PC 901 price is dropping from NT$16,900 to NT$12,900, which works out to be roughly US$420, a drop of around US$130. The Intel Celeron M processor-based Eee PC 900 has already been phased out of the market in Taiwan, but prices for the Celeron M-based Eee PC 1000HD (down to US$450) and both the Eee PC 904 and 1000H (price cuts of about US$30) have been lowered.
HP has dropped the price of its 2133 Mini-note unit by around US$60, while the cost of Acer’s Aspire model has been cut by about half of that. Whether these price cuts are permanent or temporary for inventory clearance isn’t clear, but now might be a good time to invest in a brand new netbook if you’re in Taiwan.
