It's a ridiculous article. I seriously doubt that ipads will put more than a slight dent in net book sales. An iPad is not a netbook. A net book is a small, cheap, lower powered version of a lap top. The iPad is none of those things except being smaller.

There is a nice overlap between why someone would buy either a net book or an iPad...but it's not a one to one comparison. I do not foresee any time where ipads will sell even 1/3rd as many units as netbooks.

The apples to apples competitors are going to come from the Android tablets and HP with WebOS. Against these devices, the iPad should do quite well.
