More Power!

*Insert Tim "The Toolman" grunt here*

There I am, showing my age again.

So during my research of the Asus EEE 701, I discovered the nifty 901 model, which will include an Intel 'Atom' processor running at 1.6ghz, as opposed to the 701's 800mhz.

Not only is it more powerful, but the power efficient chipset, among other changes, is also supposed to substantially lengthen the battery life to an Asus estimated 7.8 hours for certain uses.

The form factor is still pretty small, and I think it would be marvelous as the center of my little set up.

Two Caveats, though. One, it costs a couple of hundred more dollars. And two, it's not out in America yet.

So in the meantime while I save a little extra and wait for this beauty to hit our shore, I'll use my Macbook Pro in the prototype. Yeah, it's bigger and heavier, but like I said before, I'd like to get a working Proof of Concept done as quickly as possible.

Besides, a "Wearable Mac" would be pretty cool in it's own right.
