OK.
Back to the topic...
I for myself have both a NIT as well as a netbook.
I bought the netbook recently - why?
- I tried to use the NIT as stationary devive as well. You need a bigger keyboard, a mouse and an VGA output for that.
All these things are included in a netbook and are not yet fullfilled with a NIT (connected via usb2vga toa monitor, keyboard/mouse connected to usb host).
So afterall both devices have pros and cons and can't (yet) replace themselves:
Netbook:
+ Office Keyboard (wind)
+ Mouse/Touchpad (Touchscreen additionally would improve)
+ 1024x600 display, even connectable to VGA
- doesn't fit in a pocket
- boot time
NIT:
+ small
+ "always on"
-/+ internal keyboard not for office use, but available (N810)
- mouse not (really) supported
- Display not realtime connectable to external VGA
My vision is to carry my NIT around, do everything with it and connect it to large VGA, keyboard, mouse at the office and continue working.
Hope that next device enables this...
