Geeks.com is selling the Eee PC 4G 701 for just $299. This computer sold for $399 when Asus first introduced it less than a year ago. But since launching the Eee PC 701, Asus has put out over a dozen new Eee PC units, which has helped drived down the cost on the mini-notebook that started it all.

The Eee PC 4G 701 has a 7 inch, 800 x 480 pixel display, 512MB of RAM and 4GB of flash storage. It doesn’t have the roomier keyboard or screen you’ll find on newer Eee PC models. But if you can’t justify spending more than $300 on a netbook (and can’t wait a few days or weeks for Dell to launch a $299 laptop with an 8.9 inch display), this computer might be worth a look.

    I'm tempted to pick one up to use simply as a carputer. Throw GPS, touch, and some USB storage and you'd have a killer car system. But since I just got my 901, I'll have to wait a while. I think the screen on this would be perfect for car use, not so much for anything else. I know people like it, but I have a hard enough time with the screen on the 901 (wouldn't want anything smaller).
  • I've known about these for a couple of months now. They have been stocking them for a while. I wanted to grab one, but ultimately waited for the 901.

    Just a note that these are refurbished units.
