I’ll break with tradition established netbooks compared to laptops. This time, my level will be the smartphone. And the iPhone is no better test than the Apple.
Verizon sells netbooks as a kind of sophisticated text processing
As the holiday season, many consumers have an apparent choice between a cheap netbook or notebook expensive. Personally, I am faced with this choice (or so I thought).
Let me in advance that if I took advantage of netbooks for a limited time, I’ve never owned this book.
I think (now) that disappoint comparisons Netbook laptops with the general public (since Netbooks are slower, smaller screens, keyboards, even closer – and this list of shortcomings is long over) is really the way to the look. Let me go.
I recently interviewed the director of technology at a large school district in Louisiana, who had bought a lot of netbooks. And I asked what I thought was the important question: were not on the performance and screen size is a concern? They quickly pointed out that my entire viewpoint is wrong.
In short, students living in K through 12, the iPhone screen and performance. If moving into a netbook is a big step up. In this perspective, the screens are great, the keyboards of expansion and performance more than adequate.
Enjoy the iPhone 3GS (Droid or Motorola or BlackBerry Storm, take your pick). For what is obvious in many ways, this is a platform for personal computers for e-mail state, SMS will surf the Internet, music, navigation, YouTube, and the list.
In other words, the iPhone is for data consumers and the media and the production of light. As the netbook. But the netbook is clear that this side of the aircraft. It adds a keyboard and a bigger screen, which also makes it potentially a better platform production. So, iPhone is an asset, if you want.
And here’s the real proof is in the pudding. Where do you see netbooks sold in those days (think Nokia booklet)? The last time I visited a Verizon store, it had 3G netbooks in evidence near the Droid Motorola.
The point seems obvious now. You want more productivity? Choose a netbook. And it follows the same logic of the CTO at the School District of Louisiana. And the tablets come and loose media to Apple and others are also known as high-end iPhone-like device placed on the market, in my opinion.
Thus, in the next month or so when I go out to those seeking to buy netbook (CNET review said the HP Mini 5101 one of the best netbooks on the market now), I’m not a smartphone upscale shops is a slimmed-notebook.()
