Asus is giving a little extra incentive to jump on this netbook early. If you pre-order the machine before its late-February ship date, you’ll save $25 off its price.
Though we doubt you’ll be able to use the Eee PC 1000HE for 9 hours without plugging it in, it does deliver the best battery life of any netbook we’ve tested so far. With its improved keyboard, mildly juiced-up performance, and $399 price tag, the 1000HE is our favorite Eee PC ever—and if you pre-order it now, you can get the 1000HE for $374 until it starts shipping in late February. After that, the price will return to $399.

Zipzoomfly.com has them for $369

But they’ve sold out rather quickly. Other places have them for sale for $374 and up.
According to all reports "late February" is the release date. I just bought one and the 2 Gig memory upgrade for 399.99 – pretty good deal, I think.
