^^ well of course 3 USB 2.0 ports are there..
see here : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASUS_Eee_PC Look for the 4g model with webcam
and yes SSD capacity is 4 gb only ... which unfortunately the OS itself will occupy...

don't know why these people fuss over solid state memory though expensive..
a 20/40 gb HDD would have done equally well at same price point...

though the SSD is gonna make this one Tough.. but no-one goes around tossing one's laptop however tough it may be

anyways lets look forward to it..
BTW there are three competitors now..

ACi Subnotebook price ~15k
HCL Mileap X UMPC ~14 k

ASUS EeePC 4G ~ indian price ??

If I am right that would come under "extra cost" :-P
It would be better to go for the ACi notebook more because its cheaper and has 40 GB HDD...... and still a stylish UMPC .. maybe build quality is bad but then it hasne been reviewed ..
