New iPad killer from Taiwan

DigiTimes reports on Asustek’s Eee Pad to ship this summer:

To compete against Apple’s iPad, Asustek has strengthened the Eee Pad’s industrial design and has cooperated with Google to adopt its Android platform. Asustek will also add features that iPad currently does not support such as USB, integrated webcam, and Adobe Flash

How much? About $500. How many? About 300,000 units by the end of 2010. By comparison, Apple sold 300,000 iPads in the US the first weekend.
