Hands-on with Atom-based Eee PC 901 running WiMax

From Engadget -
Engadget Chinese is at the WiMax Expo with the first WiMax-enabled Eee PC 901 pictures. Showing off a funky, cutaway hinge (likely due to missing battery), the unit features an Atom processor, Bluetooth, 802.11b/g, and 802.11n. The WiMax chipset used is Intel's Link 5150, which has a dual-mode WiFi and WiMax module. In other words, there's no guarantee the 802.11n will carry over to the WiMax-less 901 being announced tomorrow.
