Asus adds a new lineup of accessories for the Eee

Okay, so you’re on a budget, thus you buy the Eee PC and look around for some peripherals. Suddenly the price of a new router and VoIP phone rack up and you’re left tearing your hair out. Fear no more, because Asus has released their new lineup of accessories, featuring the Ai Guru U1 VoIP phone, which plugs in via USB, the Eee AP which is a simple wireless access point, a USB 3.5G HSDPA card and an external DVD-RW drive. This new line of accessories will join the previous group that included a mouse, noise-isolation earbud style headset, power adapter and 6-cell battery they released back in December.

At first sight (and second and third) these devices may look like they are very simply made, you may even think they left out the design aspect completely. But think about it, they serve their purpose and perhaps most important are affordable and customizable. Which some may argue is the whole point for buying an Eee PC in the first place. No prices have yet been released, but Gadgetell will keep you posted.
