I work in retail in the UK and we've been advertising them as netbooks for a few months. They were originally marketed as web browsers are far as I know but it got confusing explaining the difference between a hardware web browser and software.

Hey pal, Thanks for the update. The news report was therefore not completely accurate.

I was having a scrute at the prices for these things in Ebuyer and noted that the prices of the lower end of the laptop range are beginning to slip - I wonder if this is because of the netbook?
Looks as if I am going to have to learn about Linux as well - seems to more and more new system sales with this as the OS!
