Asus reveals a small-form-factor PC, but with few details

We'll see if we can swing by the Asus booth for more info on this one, but the basics of the new Asus Nova P22 small-form-factor PC include 802.11n wireless, an Intel Core 2 Duo CPU, and a $799 price tag when it comes to the U.S. in late January. That looks like a slot-loading DVD drive, too. 802.11n Wi-Fi is great, we'd like to see more of it and expect to this year. Otherwise, this system looks like a black, Windows version of a Mac Mini. Throw in an HD-optical drive (OK, Blu-ray, probably no more need to equivocate at this point), and we'd be more impressed.
