The Asus Eee PC T101MT has been out for a month or so now and the response to it has been mixed.

The T101MT’s sturdy build quality, slick looks and small size are appreciated but its touch screen response is lacking in many respect. The touch screen requires a hard press to respond. The combination of slow performance and bad touch screen response make things worse, as sometimes the user simply does not know if the device actually received the finger touch or not.

ASUS announces Windows 7 tablet, besides Eee Pad

In addition to the forthcoming ASUS Eee Pad which is released in July and will run Android, ASUS will also be releasing a Windows 7-enabled tablet.

ASUS is like everyone else unsure about what direction the market is moving in and betting on two horses. The difference is really between running a lightweight but limited web-focused operating system like the iPhone OS or Android vs. running heavyweight operating systems that run advanced software applications like Windows 7 and Mac OSX do.

The question is what the people that buy these things want. Just browsing and running basic applications from the app stores, or actually doing advanced work.

Due to the nature of Windows 7, it’s to expect that ASUS will come with a higher-spec device than the Eee Pad.

The Asus Eee PC T91 has finally landed in the UK. The touchscreen works great with a stylus but not so great to control with just fingers. Included in the T91 package is Asus’ Magic Desktop which needs improvement and might be the reason for the sluggish response with fingers. The model looks great with a black glossy finish and the just as glossy screen.

Check out the entire review.

FCC has just given the Asus T91 clearance to be sold in the US. The FCC clearance documents show us many new photos of the tablet netbook.

As you can see, the T91 does not have a user-removable battery, which is unfortunate.

The T91′s RAM is upgradeable to 2GB from the standard 1GB.  It has dual SSD card reader. One is for normal usage and one is for disk expansion, to create more internal storage.

There is a SIM card slot on the GPS chip, it seems to be possible to replace the GPS chip with a 3G chip, enabling the mobile functionality of the T91.

No news from the FCC about the Asus T101H though, we hope to see that one cleared by the end of June.
