I said that you said that (and thats what you actually said) it might be over 20k in india concidering the taxes so a C702TU will be a better investment.

And now that the HCL MiLeap X is 14k, and the ACi Ultra Mini 15k(with 40gig HDD instead of flash memory), the only place the EEE gets prominance is its dominence in other countries where it has been existant for long and hence the community support, as well as the fact that it looks better.

So in simple words, I think there will be many people who will not just blindly buy the EEE and instead go for the MiLeap-X, or the ACi Ultra Mini, as they all are in different legues close to the one the EEE is in.

And isn't ACi planning a 20K laptop ?(its also an UMPC but with much better config than all previously mentioned laptops. But it too has 7" screen.) Isn't Acer already providing a 20k laptop ?(a "mainstream" book) So these will mean that the EEE has come amid Stiff competition.

I can steal your line and say everyone to pay 2k more for a "mainstream" laptop now
