wtf Netbook and the iPad are nearly identical in size and weight except for thickness. most modern netbooks are pretty effin slim compared to the first gen ones and most regular notebooks. The point of the iPhone and other Smart phones was that you can basically do most of you basic computing needs on it and its very portable. The iPad being nothing more than a slightly faster and larger iPhone (running the same os and all) seems pointless in comparison. Its all the function and basic web surfing of the iPhone in a much larger and cumbersome package. PLUS you get to carry around all kinds of dongles, WOOPEEE! Also $130 more to use 3G, weak.
dongles for what? do tell. netbooks offer 3G for lower pricing? people used their netbooks to read newspapers and books? i didn't see that in coffee shops or on the subway...although i did see people using the kindle. to be honest, i actually rarely saw people using netbooks. i wanted to buy one but never did for whatever reason.
