Asus will market an Eee PC with a touch screen

Following the success of its Eee PC, Asus has decided to quickly evolve its Eee PC. Having announced models with larger screens, they have decided to market an Eee PC with a touch screen in the second trimester.
However, contary to the touch screen used in the iPod Touch and iPhone, this screen will use a resistive technology instead of capacitive. This technology is more adaptive to medium-sized screens.
The cost of such a screen will be about $10 extra.
Asus clearly follows a different direction than Apple, however it will also have its mark on the computer market.
