digg_url = ‘http://digg.com/gadgets/ASUS_EeePC_900_hits_FCC_with_multitouch_trackpad’; Eee fans, your second-wildest dream has just come to pass. ASUS’ next version of the mini-laptop has hit the FCC, and we’ve got the pictures to prove it. Yes, as we speak (possibly, but possibly not) inspectors from the agency are poring by details of the 9-inch, second generation system — referred to here as the Eee 900 — desperately hoping that none of its radio waves do anything funky to anyone else’s radio waves. There’s no secret-sauce WiMAX or drastic changes we can see, though the manual does build mention

of “multi-finger gesture input,” which will apparently supply the ability to zoom in, zoom out, and do familiar two-finger scrolling on the newly resized trackpad. Check the pictures in the gallery for loads of looks at the new entry, including a view of its insides that’ll manufacture your eyes water.
