Now that I think about it, it would be great if Apple came out with a Netbook in the sub-$500 range. Atom processor (or maybe a newer version by the time they introduce it), 1-2 Gb RAM, 64-128 Gb SSD (or a SSD-HDD combo), 10-12 in. screen. Basically a cheap, slightly underpowered Macbook Air.

Intel VP says netbooks are "fine for an hour"

there is NO way i could use a netbook as a primary computer. Truthfully there are very few laptops, except for the gaming ones, that I could use as a primary computer. I would use a netbook as a laptop in addition to a powerful desktop. When Netbooks get a little bit faster, I would like to buy one for internet, word processing and maybe watching some downloaded movies if I am on vacation.

they need to put faster CPU's in these and/or lower the price.

If they don't they should have a netbook (NOT the Air) that could be priced in the sub $800 level

this is definitely the best way to keep the kids safe. This sounds just like my car... '94 Suburban

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I just switched to Sprint from Verizon about three months ago for the Pre. Then I went for the Hero about a week ago. Now, I miss my hardware keyboard and am thinking about switching to the Moment. I am still able to switch back to Verizon if I want and get the Droid when it arrives. Should I just trade up to the Moment when it comes out, see if I like it, and if not switch to the Droid? Or something else entirely? Help!"
