I am wondering just how much more performance do they expect to get out of a netbook right now? Small increments are really not much of an attraction unless the price drops with it. The netbook market seems to be stalling out, but that may be a financial issue.

When companies like HP add more performance they never lower the prices. Maybe prices will come down later on down the road when Tablets start cutting into netbook sales.
