The wait is nearly over for an Eee PC with a larger screen. Engadget was able to fondle ASUS’s new Eee PC at CeBIT, but ASUS officials would not allow the publication to boot the machine up — likely for fear of spilling the beans on the Eee PC’s processor/chipset. However, we do know that the Eee PC 900 will feature 1GB of memory and will be available in storage capacities up to 12GB. As previously reported, the 8.9″ display will have a 1024×600 resolution which is a welcome jump from the confining 800×400 display on the first-generation Eee PC.

The increase in screen real estate made a minimal impact on the exterior dimensions of the device — the Eee PC 900 is slightly larger and thicker and features a larger touchpad. The keyboard looks to identical to the previous model. According to Engadget, the larger display will have a negligible impact on battery performance with battery lifetime quoted at 2.5 to 3 hours. ASUS says that the Eee PC 900 12G will launch in mid-2008 with a price tag of €399 ($600 USD).
