I think that the U100 is a good enough deal as it is. Are people really going to be so cheap to save a few bucks for a smaller screen on the U90, especially when the U100 is only going to be $400/500?
It really depends on all of the specs. The screen resolution would be the same on the smaller screen, so you wouldn't be giving up anything there, so if you could save $50 and get a 9" instead of a 10", that would be fine with me.
If could do the 9" and cut back on the unneccesary features like webcam, bluetooth, and dropped the 80GB HD for something smaller, and then charged $300 for it, that would be fine with me. Sort of what Asus did with the 2G Surf model EeePCs, but better. The Surf compromised too much to the point the it was almost useless (and not upgradable), and was still about $100 more expensive than it should have been.
I would definitely want to save the few bucks, ESPECIALLY if the specs were the same, the price was lower, and--MOST importantly--if it was simply smaller and didn't have the extra space around the bezel.

Well, depending on the price cut, I might...
I'm on a 3rd world country, what is an insignificant amount for Americans, is a great deal of money for me
