i must say id be very interested in seeing a android netbook.. and id love to play with it, but i cant imagine it being that usefu, i think it would be rather slow and probaby just like a nexus one or a droidl, i hope im wrong because id really like to encourage the use android and the upcoming meego.

My Droid is actually faster than I need it to be. I just want a notebook. Literally, a device that is useful for taking notes and general writing. This thing is beautiful, but it's twice as powerful as my Droid, and I really don't need that extra power - I'd rather have the same battery and run it an extra 5 hours.

  i guess i havnt played with the droid enough. I would like to see it work out, especially seeing how it would do as a netbook platform, but im a little skeptical.

I'd just rip Android out and install a vanilla Ubuntu ARM desktop. I am more than happy with Ubuntu running on an Intel Atom. I guess I wouldn't be that much disappointed at it running on ARM.

  > 16MB of flash storage You're going to need to upgrade first.

    It's 16GB. Flash is incredibly cheap now, you can get 4GB for $12 at the supermarket (that's AUD; pr $10 USD)

      They must have fixed the typo. You're right of course. I thought it was a little strange to have so little memory.
