Amazon is now offering two netbooks from, you guessed it, Asus. The Eee PC 1015PED is going for anywhere between $429 and $465.40 (here), while the 1018P is going for $527.80 (here). First, the 1015PED netbook sports Intel Atom N455 1.66GHz / N475 1.83GHz CPU options, Bluetooth 3.0 support, and a 6-cell battery. The 1018P, on the other hand, sports a 10.1-inch display (1,024 x 600 resolution), an Intel Atom N455 1.66GHz CPU, 1GB of DDR3 RAM, a 250GB HDD, WiFi b/g/n / Bluetooth 3.0 support, and three USB ports. Both netbooks seem a bit expensive for what they're offering but it's up to you if you want to purchase one.

It looks like if you're interested in the Asus Eee PC 1015P, 1016P, and 1018P (above) netbooks then you can actually order them right now if you want to. The 1015P and the 1018P netbooks are actually available at Best Buy right now. The 1015P is $349.99 (here), while the black model of the 1018P will cost you $349.99 as well but the white one will cost you $379.99 (both here). Sadly, you won't be finding the 1016P netbook on Best Buy but you will spot it on ExcaliberPC (here) for $499, which is a bit much for what you're getting. Specs are all on their websites so you can check those out - they're fairly typical netbook specs.

Spotted at the FCC (here) this afternoon is another Asus Eee PC netbook. This time it's the 1018P that was unveiled at CeBIT a couple of months ago. We already know that this netbook packs a 10.1-inch display with a 1,024 x 600 resolution, Intel Atom N455 1.66GHz / N475 1.83GHz CPU options, WiFi b/g/n / Bluetooth 2.1 support, optional 3G connectivity, 1GB of DDR3 RAM, a 250GB HDD, and some USB 3.0 ports. This netbook will be faster than most of the other netbooks out there because it has support for DDR3 RAM.

Some new photos have just popped up of the upcoming Asus Eee PC 1018P netbook. It's sporting a brand new design along with a 10.1-inch display with a 1,024 x 600 resolution, an Intel Atom N455 / N475 CPU which both have support for DDR3 RAM, a VGA port (no HDMI), 1GB / 2GB of RAM, a 250GB / 500GB HDD, a fingerprint reader, a battery that'll last 6.5 hours, WiFi b/g/n, Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR standard (Bluetooth 3.0 optional), and two USB 3.0 ports. It's got a thin body which looks quite good, I'm just hoping that the trackpad works well. The price and release date haven't been mentioned yet.

A couple of upcoming netbooks that will be a part of Asus' Eee PC line-up have just leaked a couple of days early. They include the 1015P, the 1016P, and the 1018P. They'll all feature 10-inch displays with Intel Atom CPUs. Apparently, the 1015P (above) is set to be a refresh of the current 1005P and it'll feature a matte display, a chiclet keyboard, an aluminum body, and a battery life that will last up to 14 hours. The 1016P is said to be quite similar to the 1015P but it'll be slightly more business-focused.

The last one is the 1018P (below, picture via Slash Gear) which is said to be their thinnest netbook to date at just 18mm thick. Along with that it'll also have a fingerprint scanner, a USB 3.0 port, and a battery life that will last 10 hours. We'll see more of these at CeBIT 2010 which is in a couple of days.

Update: According to Netbooked, the Eee PC 1016P and the 1018P will be rocking Intel Atom N455 / N475 CPU options. This means that there'll be support for DDR3 RAM. Both of them also step it up by offering [optional] WiMAX, USB 3.0, and Bluetooth 3.0 support.
