High-Tech Companies Take Up Netbooks
One theme emerging from this year's Consumer Electronic Show is the introduction of a new breed of low-priced laptops called "netbooks". These netbooks typically cost between $300 and $500 and typically use the Intel Atom chip, but other products are starting to hit the market that could actually take product costs down even further.
The activity is the latest sign that technology segments are converging at an accelerating rate, driven by competitive pressures that the recession is amplifying. Companies including Phoenix are trying to help netbooks and other portables work as simply as cellphones, just as makers of those pocket-size devices are improving their ability to tap into the Web.
