[http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2011/12/asus.jpg](http://www.engadget.com/2011/12/27/asus-eee-pc-1225b-proves-netbooks-will-still-be-kicking-around-i/) The death of the netbook has been [greatly](http://www.engadget.com/2011/11/25/is-samsung-giving-up-on-netbooks-next-year/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+weblogsinc%2Fengadget+%28Engadget%29) exaggerated -- at least that's what ASUS is praying holds true for next year. Its latest addition, the Eee PC 1225B, refreshes the spec sheet seen on the [1215B](http://www.engadget.com/2011/03/23/asus-eee-pc-1015b-and-1215b-go-on-sale-starting-at-289/). You'll find it's still based on AMD's Brazos chipset -- thus the B -- and will apparently arrive on two different gear speeds; one with an AMD C60 dual-core 1GHz processor and another toting AMD's dual-core 1.65GHz E450 APU. Up to 4GBs of DDR3 RAM and storage options starting at 320GB should ensure a respectable bang for your buck. On top of that, there's an 11.6-inch 1,366 x 768 display, integrated webcam, a smattering of USB ports (both 2.0 and 3.0) and the same VGA and HDMI outputs found on its predecessor. *Notebook Italia *reckons that these new netbooks will start at €349 ($455). If you're not ready just yet for the heady specs (and prices) of an [Ultrabook](http://www.engadget.com/tag/ultrabook/), you can visit [ASUS](http://www.engadget.com/tag/Asus/)' official site at the source for the full spec breakdown.
