Where Is The Spec?

I know WWDC will be held next Monday, and if Apple releases new iPhone, I can check their website and get all the spec, product introduction, and also watch the keynote for the product release right away.

What about the new product release from the much anticipated EEE PC? From the website, we only get the press release. That's all. Computex has started few days ago, and today when I checked Asus' website, well, EEE PC 901 and 1000 were still not there, as shown on the dated screenshot. I am sure some website system can be set up so some people can prepare the material for the new product ahead of time, set up a date in the server so when the time is up (the time when the product is released), and material will be published automatically on the website.

Apple had done a terrific job in the regard. When the product is released, customers get to know the product online right away, to order right away, or know the lead time if the product is not immediately available. Other companies should really learn from Apple.
