Well, it looks like a "netbook" like product may well be on the way from Apple. However, I agree with most observers Apple's netbook will be radically different from the current fare of low cost -- and admittedly cheaply made -- netbooks.
The device I'm looking for from Apple will have a touch screen, and therefore a "virtual" keyboard like the iPhone, only larger. I suspect unlike the iPhone there will be an option for an external keyboard.
We possibly could get a preview of the product then Apple holds its iPhone 3.0 software preview next week. Let's hope.
Here are what others are speculating about Apple's netbook:
