Although PC makers are trying to catch up with the iPad, it is worth noting that they have not talked about netbooks. Some people now call it mini-notebooks. More people say that this product is slightly larger than a smartphone and smaller than a laptop, but it is a bit clumsy beside a tablet.
According to Gartner, between October and December of last year, PC makers released 10.5 million mini-notebooks, which is already the pinnacle; in the first quarter of this year, this figure fell to 9.7 million units, and the second quarter fell again. To 8.4 million, it will continue to fall in the next few months.
So what's going on? This may not be difficult to think of the iPad quickly picked up and led to the popularity of the Internet last year was suddenly compared. And just before the iPad was launched in January, the focus of the CES 2010 conference was on the tablet.
HP, DELL, and Archos have all demonstrated touch panels, but the details are not clear, and the shipping time is also vague, but the focus is the same, that is, to attract users looking for a new mobile device.
Oracle CEO Larry Ellison once said that the speed at which the tech industry catches up with the fashion industry will not lose the fashion industry. Before long ago, the netbook was hailed as the future of the mobile industry because it was slightly larger than the smart phone but the price was lower than that of the full notebook. More attractive. The netbook is basically a downsized notebook with a screen size of 5-10 inches. It uses Windows XP or 7, or even Linux, and uses a low-power processor to save power. The price is more than US$300-600.
ASUS is the founder of the Internet. He was the first to launch the Eee PC in 2007. He was still the star at CES 2009, but no one was talking about it at the same conference this year.
Netbooks won't disappear instantly. If you want to buy a cheaper version of Microsoft Word software, you can still get it. Asustek, Acer, Lenovo, and LG have recently introduced dual-core netbooks, and now they are blowing a wave of "top netbooks," with larger screens and higher prices, which are almost approaching the range of regular notebooks.
But if you really want to find a mobile product that sits somewhere between a smartphone and a laptop, then the tablet is the product you're most worth waiting for. Less than six months after the launch of the iPad, it may even cause PC purchasers to postpone or purchase laptops.
UBS analyst Maynard Um mentioned in a report to customers last week that pressure from the iPad led PC makers to speed up the launch of products that mimic the iPad.
"This impact has a greater impact on low-end PC sales, because the price of the iPad is attractive enough to cause this market to be affected. We do not think that the iPad really has the ability to affect overall PC sales. After all, the iPad's capabilities cannot be compared with regular notebooks. However, users who bought iPads do delay purchasing/upgrading existing computers."
It's amazing how much a single product from a single vendor can create such power, but then many iPad-like products will soon be on the market, with DELL's Streak, Samsung's Galaxy Tab, and what HP or RIM might push next. Looking back, it is indeed difficult for the Internet to have any incentive.
