Netbooks entered the market to be more portable than what's currently on market, including the ultra-portables, and cheaper so the average person could afford to buy it. This, and the other 12-inches that are being released (especially the Samsung at an estimated price of $650), is more than the average person can afford to pay. Personally I'll stick with my Wind. I'd even give more props to the ASUS, although it didn't appeal to me in the beginning. They've managed to innovate and hold on to the idea of netbooks being inexpensive for the average person.
