I'm sure we've all seen that Slashdot article about the sub-$200 tablet with the ARM processor, and new developments like the Cortex A8 and Marvell Sheeva that are redefining capabilities from commodity hardware.
Do you think smartbooks will see any success?
I can see the argument that our hardware is quickly out pacing the requirements of basic software, and that customers want simple, easy to use technology, not complicated gizmos (See SMS, iPhone, Rubiks Cube)
Personally I think that they will see success in a small niche market, but I see their market and eReaders converging pretty quickly.
What say you?
