ASUS Eee PC 1008HA Seashell
At first sight, ASUS Eee PC 1008HA looks like any other netbook made in piano finish, where shiny black plastics dominates its exterior.

Except this rather nice effect, this is still netbook with piano finish surface, which is magnet for fingerprints and nightmare for users that like to keep their portable companion clean.
