The tiny Asus Eee PC is now selling in major retail outlets including Harvey Norman, JB Hi-Fi and Retravision, following high public demand for the device, says its maker.
The Eee PC, which was named after the ‘three Es: Easy to learn, Easy to work, Easy to play,’ according to Asus, went on sale in Myer only in December last year, with stocks selling quickly leaving limited quantities available.<\/P>
From today, the Eee, which was designed as a portable learning computer for young children, will be available in Betta Electrical, Betta Electrical, David Jones, Good Guys, Harvey Norman, JB Hi-Fi, Myer, Officeworks, Retravision and WOW Sight & Sound nationally. <\/P>
Asus Australia managing director, Ted Chen, says the Eee has “taken Australia by storm.”<\/P>
“The Eee PC has been moving fast since it hit Myer stores in December 2007 and continues to do so. So far approximately 80% of stock has been sold through major Australian retailers and we are trying to get as much allocation as possible from our headquarters to ensure there is stock on shelves. There is a high demand for the Eee PC worldwide and Australia is no exception!” he said.<\/P>
The Eee retails for $499 and is available in white and black colours.
