I cannot believe anyone listens to a word Rob Enderle says after the SCO debacle. It irks me that he appears to have suffered no professsional consequences for his idiotic, misinformed pronouncements then - maybe we should have some kind of Ethical Pundit's Association for him to be drummed out of. I'd put a monkey throwing darts at a dartboard above his opportunistic nonsense.
However, the monkey does score occasionally, and by pure random chance I agree this time. When we're talking a sub-$500 device, taking off another hundred or so makes a huge difference. Current netbooks are nice toys but still too expensive; they are basically being bought as mini-laptops. A true "netbook" for $250 or so would be disruptive, I agree. That's the kind of price where the cell networks can start subsidizing the price and we enter a cellphone-style market, not a buget laptop market. Could be a big deal.
