This episode of Labrats discusses the MacBook Air, the iPad, and Netbooks as categories. Now that the hybrid is out (I am taking delivery of the Dell Inspiron Duo Tablet hybrid in January), there is another category to consider. However, if you are considering which form factor is for you, this video will give you a basic understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of each category. I have already expressed my preference for the netbooks, because of the built-in keyboard. However, I suspect that the combination of the touch screen interface AND a keyboard in a small form factor (Dell hybrid) will be my new favorite. Watch and learn.
I made it through about 10 minutes of their shilling for Apple before I got mildly disgusted and turned it off.
"Touching the future," indeed.
