When news about the EEE first surfaced I saw a lot of responses in the vein of: "for that price I'll buy two, just in case the first one breaks down". The 200 USD price is well below the sweet spot, it would appear. I am not surprised: I am guessing the EEE will have to compete in the market for the Psion Netbook and the Palm Foleo, devices considerably more expensive.
