Which is indeed this case
http://unicap-imaging.org/unicap_eeepc.htm lspci and lsusb output
http://www.hjreggel.net/cardspeed/info-controller.html
ENE Technology, Inc. [VID 0CF2]
UB6225 [PID 6225] - USB 2.0 SD Card Reader Controller
So let's hope its firmware is capable of reading SDHC.

Either way, I'm increasingly impressed by Asus. I use their motherboards almost exclusively when building my PCs at home (3 at the moment with ASUS MBs). I'm sure they brought the same quality and attention to detail to these mini laptops.

It would have been very silly of Asus to have released this without SDHC support, or at least the ability to update it in future - good to see that it appears to be SDHC compatible out of the box!

It has been verified that it does. There are even speed comparisons available between Class 2 and Class 6 4GB and 8GB cards.

As long as it's running a fairly recent Linux kernel it should have full SDHC support.

The 770 makes a great ebook reader, but I am less happy with its performance on other applications.
The EEE's clamshell format makes will make it less usable as an ebook reader, but the other apps look good. The notion that you can plug in a real monitor, keyboard and mouse when you want is very attractive.
If (when?) they had made this into a tablet format then I think that Nokia would be in big trouble.

The Eee is tiny. I didn't realise how small it was until I saw the pictures at this site: http://www.eeeuser.com/
Grab a standard DVD movie case. The Eee is just a little bit bigger than that when closed. It really is very small. It's not just a small notebook. It's in a new category of its own. Too large for the pocket (unless you wear cargo pants) but it'll just slip into any bag. Even a handbag, if you're a lady.
My concerns relate to that screen. It's 800x480, the same as the N tablets, but it's physically larger and I'm not sure any attempt has been made in the apps to cater for the small screen. In other words, you'll still see toolbars hogging the screen.
That said, it's effectively just another x86 hardware device, so you can do what you damn well please with it when it comes to software. If I bought one, I'd be keeping a close eye on the Ubuntu Mobile project.
This is one area where it wins over the more esoteric hardware of the N tablets.

If you go through the achingly slow Flash demo at:
http://eeepc.asus.com/en/guide.htm
and choose 'work' then you will see EE using openoffice complete with toolbars. On my monitor it shows in an approx. 7" diagonal window. I think I can live with that on the road - especially as I can plug in a bigger monitor at home.
