ASUSteK is behind some of the most exciting netbook models money can buy at this point. ASUS Eee PC 1215N is another powerful netbook, in the process of being officially launched, that further blurs the line between laptops and netbooks. The device is expected to start shipping on August 31st and packs a whole lot of power. As you can see in the below video by Netbook News, this netbook has a pretty decent sized screen and is capable of handling some more complex tasks (in comparison to other netbooks) thanks to its Intel Atom D525 (1.80GHz) processor and NVIDIA ION Graphics.

Here are the full specifications for ASUS Eee PC 1215N:

• Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium
• 12.1″ LED Backlight WXGA screen (1366×768)
