Users can download a software utility

There is some good news for all Asus Eee PC owners; users can now increase the brightness levels on their netbooks by using the eeectl software utility which is available for download from www.cpp.in/dev/eeectl. This software is used to adjust the netbook’s backlight setting all the way to the "hidden" ultra bright level. As a result, users get almost double the brightness but, running at such high levels of brightness has its pros and cons, like reduced battery life.

Eeectl is a tiny yet powerful program for Asus EEE PC series that runs on Windows and allows users to control & overclock the EEE PC on the fly. Other features include:

·         FSB speed control

·         PCIE speed control

·         CPU voltage control

·         Temperature monitor

·         Fan speed control (includes user-defined automatic mode)

·         Screen backlight control (twice brighter!)

·         Highly configurable, hotkeys, etc.
