Um, folks, the $499 laptop is already here. In fact the $399 laptop is here, too.
When it gets interesting is when the $199 laptop arrives with Windows Lite, 512 MB, 100 GB disk, and 1024x768 24-bit screen. I'd guess late 2007. It could arrive sooner, if manufacturing and distribution are handled on a cost-only basis for specific target projects.
