I really like the netbook concept. Nevertheless, here's my overall wish list for a netbook:

-Dual Core processor
-2 GB SDRAM Min.
-160 GB HDD or 64 GB SSD
-NVidia GPU (Ion platform maybe?)
-HDMI, USB
-WiFi 
-Integrated camera and mic
-OS, anything will do.
-6 cell battery
-720p, 1080p better.

-10" display, anything more I would not consider a netbook or mini laptop.  Anything less is just uncomfortable.  They hit the right spot with 10" displays.

-Good touchpad and as close to full size keyboards, or full size if possible, with some space for the hands.  I would also consider a small "rolling ball" mouse, on the right side near the place I usually place my hand.  Hopefully it will work better than the mac mouse button, which is garbage.

-Price: $375.00 Max.

I'm not being ambitious.  But for now I'll wait for a dual core processor and better video before buying.  Money is tight.
