Hopefully that pushes Asus to release more 10"+ netbooks with a screen resolution of 1366X768 along with hardware capable of playing HD videos all without relatively increasing the cost. Samsung makes some nice netbooks but, to me, they offer the same exact hardware as everyone else just in a nicer package. Some of their past netbooks have offered a few goodies here and there (such as a built-in "2.1" speaker system) but nothing over the top. Asus, on the other hand, offers the same hardware yet their packaging may not be as stylus. It might be time for Asus to step into the luxury netbook market while still keeping their great low prices (save for the model coming out with the Broadcom Crystal HD chip, that one is typically high for an Asus especially compared with other Broadcom and ION/ION LE equipped netbooks).
