I just got an Asus Eee PC 1005HAB in the mail today so forgive my ignorance on the product. I wanted to buy a skin for it but I noticed that in the "Choose Your Device" section under "Asus" they only have an option for an "Asus Eee PC 1005A"...my question is, are the dimensions or what not for a "1005A" the same as for my 1005HAB? Again, excuse my ignorance, I just don't want to purchase a skin that wont fit the dimensions of my computer.
Also, I noticed that the top of my computer also has the word "Eee" basically engraved on it. Would this be a problem for applying a skin? Since computer skins are basically like stickers, I assume they work best, and maybe even work only, when applied to a flat surface, or will the engraved "Eee" not be an issue when I apply my skin? Maybe someone with a 1005HAB like me or any laptop with some sort of ridged logo can tell me if applying a skin over it is a problem or not?
Thanks to any help I get :)

Yes, the Asus Eee PC 1005A has the same form factor as the Asus Eee PC 1005HAB. So the skins will fit. And there will not be a problem applying the skin over the logo.

funny; i asked skinit customer service the same question (ref:00D79NeR.5007AlFn6:re
Unfortunately we do not support that device at this time and we do not provide launch dates in regards to new devices being added to the website. I would not recommend buying any skin that does not specifically fit your device. We cut each skin individually for each device and ordering a different skin will cause the skin to not fit.
Lazaro: did the 1005A skin work for you? Let me know. Thx! Dave

it did work. the dimensions were fine for the my Asus Eee PC 1005HAB...as for the engraved "Eee" on top of the netbook, its barely noticeable with the skin over it. u can see there is something under the skin if you take a good look at it, but its not bad at all. If you have the same netbook as I do and u want a skin, i say go for it. the size fits perfect and the engraved "Eee" at the top doesn't make it look bad or anything at all.

Thanks for the quick feedback Lazaro. Appreciate the info. I got a 1005HAB for my daughter for Christmas and need a skin to cover up the non-pink laptop. :). Going to place my order now.
Thanks again and happy holidays!
