Kevin O’Brien at NotebookReview posted a review on the ASUS Eee PC 1005PE 10.1 inch Pine Trail Netbook. He thinks the Intel Pine Trail platform doesn’t bring a huge performance boost compared to the older N270 and N280-based netbooks, but it does give a huge bump in energy management. Compared to the Eee PC 1005HA which got 9 hours and 37 minutes in our original battery test, the 1005PE managed over 12 hours.
