In the ongoing race to produce the sleekest, slimmest and most stylish notebook, another contender will be available stateside soon. The [Asus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asus-expertbook-b9) Eee PC S101 is just .7 inches thick (or thin), about the width of a magazine, and weighing in at just 2 lbs makes it perfectly portable.

One of the characteristics that keep its looks smooth and sleek are the cleverly integrated cable storage panels.

The trim size of the Eee PC S101 still delivers all of the functions of a larger model, featuring “a 10.2” 1024x600 screen, [Intel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/macbook) Atom N270, 10/100 + bluetooth + 802.11n, 1GB DDR2, SSD 16/32/64GB with 30GB location free Eco Storage, .3 M Pixel Camera.”

It will be available in Brown, Champagne and Fashion-on-the-Go Graphite, (which looks like a big brother version of the [iPhone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultra-compact-ssd)) at select retailers for $699.
