The next wave of Netbooks?
« on: January 09, 2009, 02:39:59 pm »
Asus is apparently demoing a eeePC with touch screen and the ability to rotate the screen into tablet mode.

Intel is demoing a new version of the Classmate with the same abilities but aimed at children.  This is a  "reference" design intended to be built by other companies.

So it begins to look like the next generation of netbooks will have touch screens and be able to function as tablets.  I do wonder how it will affect the price.

I believe truth and principle do matter. If you have to sacrifice them to get the results you want, then the results aren't worth it.
