I think a netbooks's screen is too small to use it as a convential desktop.

This just got me thinking. If Apple is rumored to launch a Netbook and a Ipod Touch with a bigger screen, maybe they are going to launch both in the same device. That is, Apple's netbook and the new bigger Ipod touch will be one.

Something like the new OLPC prototype, with a virtual keyboard on the other screen. It would be the Nintendo DS killer.

Except a DS is already 4 years old (nearing the end of it's lifecycle). In the next year or two, Nintendo will just release something new (not just another rehash); especially if Apple keep closing in on the handheld games market. Maybe the next gen Nintendo handheld killer...
