I bought a netbook during this cycle that is being reported.
I'd also say that many tech people do a hold when something awesome is coming down the pike.
I thought of buying an ipad instead of a netbook, but once I used the ipad and held it for 10-15 minutes in my one hand, I found it heavy and tiring.
I had to buy a netbook not just because of an issue, but because I needed a USB port to attach my credit card reader device. Now i know of an iphone/potentially ipad device, but when I know something works on the PC I don't wonder "will it work on a mac?"
I really do think that it's a matter of the market continuing to splinter, smartphones have found their legs, and same thing for the netbook market.
