Still out of public reach, Asus design team has unofficially revealed its latest metal-inspired creation, the Eee PC 1218, which apparently won the 2010 Red Dot design award for the slim and light clamshell shape that covers this netbook from bottom to top. From the limited info available at this point, it suppose to have a chiclet keyboard, integrated with a built-in webcam right on front. There’s a VGA connection at the back of Asus next mini laptop, paired with dual 3.5mm audio jacks, HDMI out, Ethernet, SD card reader and three USB slots. Price or availability are yet to be determined, but it sure gives hope when you read that the Eee PC 1218 will also include a one-piece aluminum palm rest to let your arms comfortably lean forward when you type your unconventional post.
