While Microsoft’s Windows Phone 7 mobile platform has yet to compete with heavy hitters like iOS and Android it is certainly being received quite well. As time goes on and more hardware manufacturers release smartphones powered by the platform things are sure to get considerably better.

While we’ve seen devices from big name manufacturers like HTC, ASUS has yet to push out their offering. But, thanks to the FCC, we now know of the Windows Phone 7 powered ASUS E600, pictured above. This device features a 4-inch WVGA touchscreen, 5.2 megapixel camera with LED flash,  microSD card slot, 3.5 mm headphone jack, WiFi, GPS and a 1,300 mAh battery.

Additionally, it runs on the 850/1900MHz 3G bands so an educated guess would point towards an eventual release on AT&T.

Nothing official has been said about the ASUS E600 but we’ll keep you posted.

We’ve reported on the Eee tablet/reader before, and it has now received an official name of the Asus Eee note.

I heard that it was on display at Computex and this will be on display at CES 2011. This Eee Note EA-800 will soon be available this week in Taiwan and soon in Hong Kong and Europe until early next year. It should arrive in both US and China in the early first quarter.

It has a 1024 x 768 monochrome screen, and the cost will be about $230.

3D display technology is being talked about all throughout the gadget community but consumers have had a time figuring out if they really need such technology. Sure, it provides a more immersive experience but does is it worth the cost premium? Some say yes, some say no.

If you’re one who says yes, you will be interested to hear that Acer has just announced their first 3D notebook set for release in Japan dubbed the AS5745DG-A54E/L.

This notebook features a 15.6-inch 3D display with NVIDIA’s 3D Vision technology, an Intel Core i5-460M processor clocked at 2.53GHz, 4GB of RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce GT 425M GPU. Additionally, we’re looking at a 640GB hard drive, HDMI out port, Bluetooth, WiFi and a 1.3 megapixel webcam.

No word on if this machine will make the jump to the states but we do know that it will be available in Japan early next month for less than 100,000 yen (~$1,200).

We have reported on the ASUS Eee Tablet, aka E90 or EeePad.

It was unveiled at Computex in June, and there hasn’t been much on it since then. We know that it has 2,450 dpi touchscreen sensitivity and quick 0.1 second page turns.

I also believe that it was supposed to come out sometime earlier, but it will probably not show up until 2011. That means it will most certainly show up at CES 2011 in Las Vegas. So far, there is no confirmation of a price.
