2GB? ...seriously, 2GB at that price point? You can get a 2GB Acer for $199.
Yeah, I can only make a compelling case for these things when they are substantially cheaper than a comparable Windows machine. And aren't these prices supposed to, you know, trend DOWNWARD?
2GB is probably enough for the primary target consumer, and the extra battery life is a real plus, but I'm thinking $199 to $229 at most.

$279 would be where I'd expect a 4GB touchscreen Haswell Chromebook to be priced....it's really hard to play Cut The Rope without a touchscreen....
