I think the standard smart phone renders the netbook pretty pointless. And if laptops are your thing it seems much better to shell out a little more and get a machine with a bigger screen and some decent power.

We have all three, iphones, fullsize laptops and a netbook. Sometimes you want a different form factor.

Not until data plans come down. I wanted a smart phone to stream internet radio and FR all day without touching our corporate network. Data plans were $50+ a month with limits. I bought a refurb Acer One for <$200 and local wireless unlimited broadband for $19.95 a month. Works great and is smaller than my Franklin planner.
