Netbooks will increase popularity this 2010

This year 2010. we will expect netbooks to rise in sale and production. also we will keep and eye on touchbooks. ever since AsusTek Computer Inc. got the netbook craze going with its 7-inch Eee PC in late 2007, tech consumers have been gravitating to the devices. According to data from research company Gartner Inc., netbooks made up an estimated 10 percent of all PC shipments in 2009, up from 4 percent a year earlier and expected to rise this year 2010.

These devices had small screens — generally 7 to 11 inches, compared with about 14 to 17 inches on a full-sized laptop — and often smaller-than-normal keyboards. PC makers kept prices down by avoiding extras such as DVD drives and Bluetooth wireless connectivity.

Netbooks and touchbooks are the way to go in your Mobile Life.

Asus Eee PC T91

Asus Eee PC T91

The assus Eee PC T91 is the first convertable tablet netbook.
"a touch-screen laptop is not meant to be primarily used with a traditional keyboard and touch pad. The screen on the Eee PC T91 is a resistive touch panel, so it works with any input device, such as your fingers or the included nonactive stylus. And because using a small touch screen, whether on a 9-inch Netbook or an even smaller UMPC, can be a hassle when trying to fumble around Windows XP, Asus has included a custom interface meant for finger-driven computing. - Cnet"

Price as reviewed	$499

The 8.9-inch wide-screen LED display offers a 1,024x600 native resolution, which is standard for Netbooks. These days, we're also used to larger 10-inch displays, and the smaller screen may take a little getting used to. However, we said largely the same thing about 7-inch displays when the first 9-inch Netbooks hit the market.

This is a nice Netbook and first of its kind. the downside is that the battery is build-in and not replaceable by users. you have to take your netbook to a service center to replace the battery,
over all review, the product is worth buying.. :)

NOTE: buy the T91 black version its much sexy to look at..
