The latest Eee PC device is being launched at an event alongside Sprint and Intel. The reports suggest that the box will support the heavily Intel-supported Wimax wireless broadband technology.

A page on the Asus website reads: "Join ASUS, Intel and Sprint to learn about the state of WiMAX technology, preview next-generation mobile solutions (including the next generation Eee PC) and immerse yourself in tomorrow's wireless protocol".

The machine will also run a version of Microsoft Windows XP, especially tailored to run on the device.

As for the hardware specs - It is believed that the device will sport a 8.9-inch screen - larger than the current range which have 7-inch screen. There are also rumours that the device will have 8GB of memory.
