Thats too bad apple is being so narrow

I think apple waited and still is waiting way too long to bring out a netbook and pardon me but the iphone/itouch will never be a substitute for a legitamate netbook not matter what the size is. I have an HP Mini 1000 sitting here with me and it is a wonder! I would have bought the sony P because in my opinion its a superior design, but that is way too expensive. I also don't think apple would be loosing money here, instead it will lure in consumers in the market for a sub $500 mobile device and nothing else. in other words, those looking for a Desktop replacement will not buy an apple netbook, and will buy a macbook (pro) while those looking for a mobile companion will definately buy a netbook as I did.

HP wins this one as it hit the sweet spot between price and design in a timely fashion. the only draw back is, of course, XP, but that can be amended.
OHHH!! I really hope i get this one!!:D
sweet!!!GIMME!!!:P
gimme gimme gimme gimme!!!!!!:D
I couldn't have said it better my self.
I too will be keeping mine for a few reasons

1. I learned my lesson NOT to be an early adopter last time.
2. My phone has a aluminum back!!!!!
3. Current phone does everything I need and then some, for less
4. GPS and 3G aren't a big deal for me
5. Don't want to sign yet another 2 years of my life to AT&T
6. Oh a did I mention, shiny metal beats shiny plastic any day!

I guess I feel that the 1st gen iPhone is still a solid device and will be for a long time and that Apple will have a hard time super-seeding it. As it stands, nobody will be able to part me from my phone anytime soon.

Having said this, Apple.....WHAT THE *** ARE YOU WAITING FOR, get us COPY/PASTE on this thing NOW!!!!!!!
More like a lemon. It is a wide know fact that ultraportables are indeed slower than the average computer, but why would apple want to make it faster and compromise portability for it, specially if they are billing it as an ultraportable. And the aforementioned speed isn't really much to begin with yet they are charging too much for it. Everyday task wouldn't seem soooo much faster on the air than would on any other ultraportable.

If the optical drive was included at a $1400-$1550, then maybe then it would be passable. Maybe.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a solid state drive, around 32 to 64GB, for use in my web server. The drive will contain my web sites and the operating system, either Windows Server 2008 R2 or Ubuntu. Large storage is handled by a separate RAID array, so capacity is not an issue. Rather, I am looking for the fastest, longest-lasting, and most reliable drive under $150 that is suitable to my application. Any thoughts? Thanks!"
