Yes gadget fans, you’ve definitely seen the Asus Eee PC 1005HA Seashell before. That’s because it has exactly the same specs as its 1008HA cousin. That means the same sleek frame, a tasty 10-inch screen, 1.6Ghz Intel Atom processor, 1GB of RAM, 160GB H...

The removable battery makes it look like the 1008HA after a few too many nights curled up watching ER with a tub of Ben and Jerry's. The Asus Eee PC Seashell 1005HA weighs more, and the keyboard sits at a more raised angle. There's still the probl...

With the Eee PC Seashell 1005HA (SBLK01), ASUS has introduced a netbook that has superior battery life and better overall performance than probably every other model currently on the market. It has a 10.2in glossy screen, a glossy exterior shell, and it weighs 1.2kg, which makes it a little heavy. But the extra weight brings battery life that is miles ahead of the competition. The ASUS Eee PC Seashell 1005HA (SBLK01) ships with a 6-cell, 63 Watt hour–rated battery. This isnt the highest batter...
