I have a Wind running OSX, sure its handy. But I always grab my old Powerbook G4 instead. OSX just is not comfortable on the Wind.

If android has applications like word processing, powerpoint viewing, detail oriented email client, and a decent web browser that runs most web apps (please put flash and java into this browser.) I will def buy a android based netbook]]>Jun 2nd 2009 8:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-ecs-t800-netbook-brings-us-to-our-knees-with-android-on-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-ecs-t800-netbook-brings-us-to-our-knees-with-android-on-1/

I just don't see a market for these things. People expect/want to be able to run Windows on anything with a laptop form factor, not Android, not Windows Mobile, not Linux.

Besides, your logic is totally flawed. Just because a company produces somthing doesn't mean that people will flock to it. Plenty of companies were producing UMPCs a couple of years ago and look how well they did. Was there a market for UMPCs? As I mentioned above, companies tried selling cheap netbooks running Linux and soon found that nobody wanted them. What sort of a market would you say existed for them?

You need to get over yourself.]]>Jun 2nd 2009 9:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-ecs-t800-netbook-brings-us-to-our-knees-with-android-on-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-ecs-t800-netbook-brings-us-to-our-knees-with-android-on-1/Jun 2nd 2009 9:20AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-ecs-t800-netbook-brings-us-to-our-knees-with-android-on-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-ecs-t800-netbook-brings-us-to-our-knees-with-android-on-1/Jun 2nd 2009 9:20AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-ecs-t800-netbook-brings-us-to-our-knees-with-android-on-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-ecs-t800-netbook-brings-us-to-our-knees-with-android-on-1/

Not necessarily. When netbooks first came out, it was all about Linux, but the MARKET decided overwhelmingly that it wanted Windows (just saying that the proof is in the sales).]]>Jun 2nd 2009 9:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-ecs-t800-netbook-brings-us-to-our-knees-with-android-on-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-ecs-t800-netbook-brings-us-to-our-knees-with-android-on-1/

No, I'm just saying that you might be wrong and that you probably know far less about this market than the companies who sell the products. Is that really so insulting?

"As I mentioned above, companies tried selling cheap netbooks running Linux and soon found that nobody wanted them. What sort of a market would you say existed for them?"

What I was suggesting is that the hardware manufacturers clearly see this as different from their earlier attempts with Linux netbooks, otherwise they wouldn't do it.]]>Jun 2nd 2009 10:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-ecs-t800-netbook-brings-us-to-our-knees-with-android-on-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-ecs-t800-netbook-brings-us-to-our-knees-with-android-on-1/Jun 2nd 2009 10:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-ecs-t800-netbook-brings-us-to-our-knees-with-android-on-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-ecs-t800-netbook-brings-us-to-our-knees-with-android-on-1/
To me... the fact that they are willing to 'try this again' suggests that they see a difference. I mean, one would think that they would all be discouraged from trailing outside the Wintel comfort zone, given their recent lack of success. Unless there's some killer feature that will make all the difference.

Or, it may not. I'm just saying... we don't know.]]>Jun 2nd 2009 10:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-ecs-t800-netbook-brings-us-to-our-knees-with-android-on-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-ecs-t800-netbook-brings-us-to-our-knees-with-android-on-1/Jun 2nd 2009 10:30AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-ecs-t800-netbook-brings-us-to-our-knees-with-android-on-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-ecs-t800-netbook-brings-us-to-our-knees-with-android-on-1/
Linux failed on Netbooks, Android would also fail on "Smartbooks"

I have said this earlier... simply make a product with the form factor and looks of the N97, a tegra chip, load android on it and problem solved. No need for netbooks, smartbooks or nettops running android.]]>Jun 2nd 2009 10:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-ecs-t800-netbook-brings-us-to-our-knees-with-android-on-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-ecs-t800-netbook-brings-us-to-our-knees-with-android-on-1/
