According to this article, the eee pc should be shipped in bulk from early september. American prices range from $199 to $369, European prices will probable be in the same range, except the $ will be a €.

It's x86 based, runs a customized Linux (and is rumoured to run Windows XP as well).Some geeks have allready started a eee hacker site, that's real enthusiasm!
With the alledged introduction price of $199,- I would devinitly buy one!
Update: the European introduction prices are now set at €239,- for the 2GB version and €399 for the 4GB. Unfortunatly the introduction prices haven't been maintained, but it still look like a good deal to me.
