I have been hearing about these arm netbooks... but they have been 'coming soon' for several years now. I think I've seen one or two things that could maybe be called arm netbooks that I could actually buy during that time (none of which had usable keyboards.)<p>edit:<p>Example: <a href="http://news.softpedia.com/news/Lenovo-s-ARM-Based-Linux-Skylight-Smartbook-Delayed-139425.shtml" rel="nofollow">http://news.softpedia.com/news/Lenovo-s-ARM-Based-Linux-Skyl...</a><p>Did the Ipad kill it? damn you, jobs, and your devices that lack keyboards!<p>Really, I want something in the sony viao P series form factor (e.g something small and built around a keyboard with a trackpoint rather than a touchpad) Hell, if you gave me arm-level battery life and good Linux support, I'd even pay sony prices for the thing.
