Asus Eee PC 1005HA vs Asus Eee PC 1008HA
This is the biggest battle between a sexy slender Asus Eee PC 1008HA and it's flashy new brother that's burning up the sales charts. Like the last netbook battle, I believe the two best Asus netbooks out at this time are the Asus Eee PC 1005HA and the Asus Eee PC 1008HA. I've spent a little time playing around with an Asus Eee PC 1005HA that my friend purchased so while I won't be able to do a full review until I get my unit from Asus I do have enough experience to write an educated comparison post.
