Netbooks

I think netbooks are great, given they are set up properly and by properly I mean the following.

1. They have 3g network capabilities along with Wi-fi and Bluetooth, etc.

2. A greater than 7 hour battery life.

3. At least a 9 inch screen

4. A camera and microphone

5. Two USB ports

6. Ethernet Port

7. Headphone Jack

8. Some sort of video output whether it be DVI or VGA.

Then, when at home, you should be able to connect an external bluetooth mouse and keyboard, connect a larger monitor and close the lid.

This just optimizes it for good use in any environment: on the run or at home.
