To Apple and any naysayers... If Apple were to release a netbook for no greater than $500 I would buy one. Netbooks meet my portable computing needs precisely, much more so than any PDA (although I will contemplate an Iphone when/if it ever becomes available on Verizon. If by the end of the year Apple fails to release a netbook I will simply build a hackintosh.
It has been said that Apple won't release a standard netbook. That may (and probably is) true. However, unless the device functions as well as a standard netbook (not merely differently) I won't buy it. I know what I want and that is a netbook with OS-X, give it to me Apple.
