Back at CES 2009 we ran across the Asus Eee 1004DN netbook. Asus had said that it didn’t know if the machine would be sold in the US or stick to the European markets.

The unit has a 10-inch LCD, 1GB of RAM, Webcam, and runs Windows XP. The most interesting part of the machine was that it was among the first netbooks using the Atom N280 to be seen. It appears that Asus is getting ready to launch the machine here in the US.

Some images of the machine from the FCC have shown up so Asus is getting the netbook approved to sell in America. When the machine will actually hit stores is unknown. One of the interesting features is that the netbook has an integrated optical drive, something you don't see in a netbook.
