Seems like the Net books are still hot and more are coming every day. The new thing is that they are being built with 3G access so the cell phone carriers are gonna make a killing. Again!!
The new Acer One coming out will be tied to AT&T's 3G service. This is all good except for one thing: The service costs too much. If these carriers had any brains they would offer this service for the Net Books at a better deal and they'd sell tons of these and pick up a lot more users. At the price points for the service, they will only get the business users, but actually I have never met anyone who sees a Net Book and doesn't want one. When will these carriers wise up? Never. They are idiots and too greedy! $60.00 a month and more is way too much for slow 3G (actually the speed is good for the little computers, but just too much dough). For that kind of money it should be 10 mega bits!
Anyway, there are other ways to get wifi for less and use it on the go. That is a whole different story for a later date.
I just hate AT&T and the others.
