XMM-Newton observed the fast transient source XTE J1901+014 (Remillard and Smith 2002, ATEL #88) on 2006 Oct 14. A source with extremely rapid variability on minute timescales was found at RA = 19h 01m 40.20s, DEC = +01o 26' 26.0". This position is from the pipeline analysis of the EPIC PN, with 1" rms expected accuracy (Kirsch et al. 2004, SPIE 5488, 103). It is consistent with the position of ROSAT source 1RXS J190141.0 +012618.
