Their fate depends in large part on applications that make them as useful as their bigger and smaller siblings.  Acer is emerging as an early leader in netbooks, but  HP, Lenovo, Dell and possibly Apple are competing as well. Who will lead in netbook apps? It’s up for grabs. Google and Apple could take it, as could longer shots like Yahoo and Microsoft — or even a small company not yet on the radar.” [...]

@mattschulte. Any business with hopes of bringing in money has a business plan. Many just have bad business plans.

These are business models? Or businesses in search of business models.

I don’t think they will be a “thin niche” as they are already garnering sales in huge numbers. This I expect to get even bigger next year as folks realize they are full and real computers. There is no special software needed at all so I’ll have to disagree with you on that point.

What is making netbooks so big is the price point. When you start seeing these things in Target, and you will, they will absolutely explode at $300.
