Eee PC 900HD removable baseplate for upgradable HDD
Here comes another version of the Asus Eee PC. This one is being thrown into the 900 series and will come with a Hard Drive. This new version hasn’t been announced by Asus yet but it has been spotted on the FCC website getting it’s wireless certification.

Pictures from the FCC website show an Eee with an much larger baseplate hatchway. That’s a good sign, since it surely indicates the drive will be easily upgradeable – a key advantage the Eee line generally has over rival Small, Cheap Computers.
There are no details available yet other than the photo above showing that the baseplate is much larger than the other models.
Do you think there are too many versions of the Eee PC yet?

The Eee PC is a new line of PCs that focuses on providing the most comprehensive Internet experience based on three Es: Easy to learn, work, play; Excellent Internet experience and Excellent on-the-Go. Although petite in size, this high performance miniature computer truly performs and comes with a durable, shock-proof solid-state design – making it easy for housewives, office ladies and students alike to carry and connect to the Internet. ASUS’ commitment to innovative excellence has resulted in expanding the Eee PC family with new models that will incorporate larger storage, wider screens and higher performance; and this new generation of the ever-popular Eee PC will make its debut appearance at CeBIT 2008.
The new Eee PC sports an 8.9in screen, an upgraded 1Gb of Ram, larger storage up to 12Gb and will come ready for Windows too.
A mate of mine has been customising an Eee PC since they came out and has an excellent guide on getting GPRS working via bluetooth and your mobile.
UPDATE: Engadget have managed to get some photos of it in action here
