ASUS 1005P (Pineview) netbooks pictured and detailed

The folks over at Netbooknews.de have managed to get hold of a bunch of snaps of ASUS' highly anticipated upcoming 1005P series Eee PCs which recently appeared on etailers websites in the UK and Europe.









Whilst we see black and white versions here, there's also supposedly a blue variant coming to market under this new family as well.

The most exciting aspect of the 1005P Eee PCs is that they run Intel's next-gen Atom N450 (Pineview) processor. There will be two slightly differing models in the new family, as per the following (translated) specs :-

So it appears the PE variant differs in that it has a larger hard drive, glossy display and thicker 6-cell battery.
