All signs point to cheaper laptops.<BR/><BR/>I think Apple will want to tap into that market first, rather than lower their profit margins even further with a netbook.<BR/><BR/>However, I wouldn't be surprised if Apple comes out with a netbook sometime next year.<BR/><BR/>As another thought, in some sense the iPhone functions as a netbook for many. For a portable device for web browsing and email, the iPhone isn't so bad. <BR/><BR/>I know if I were traveling and wanted a device purely for the web and email, I really wouldn't need much more than an iPhone.thinkinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06024721812573340354noreply@blogger.com
