"Surely they will hold off adding SatNav until v3 so they give Fanbois a reason to buy a new iPhone each year!"

I think new iPhones will come out every 18 months, that way the chosen ones will have to renew their contracts just as they run out. Imagine how upset they'd be if a new iPhone came out and they had six months left on their current pledge. They'd have to have two contracts.

what happened to the 10" Eee. I guess it'll be the new Duo, but with a true SSD, a bigger battery, and you certainly won't have the option to run whatever OS you want.

While everyone has been waiting for Jobot to make a subnotebook, Jobot has been waiting for Asus to make one so he can have it. That tyke should do nicely.

The sub notebook makes a lot of sense.. I've been waiting for Apple to make one of these for a while now. (even though I never owned any Apple products in my life)

Sony actually has some flash only subnotebooks I've seen, but execution on these was indeed poor. (it was a bit ugly, and battery life was a lot less than you'd expect)

It also makes a lot of sense for Apple too, considering that they can get Flash for the lowest prices considering their existing volumes.

The only thing I'm worried about is getting one, and then finding out a year later you missed out on this kind of tech:

Easiest solution for Apple: port OS X to the eee PC, add a little bit more flash memory (16GB) and a slightly larger LCD (8" with 1024 x 600) and you have the perfect subnotebook.
