Yesterday, I did a "window shopping" at JB-HiFi. I found the chromebook finally arrived in Australia. That looks similar with Netbook and the price is similar with a netbook too, around $300.
That is not very attractive to myself. If you need a device is portable and just for surfing internet. I will choose a tablet, they are more portable than this. If I need a device is good enough to do some work,I will use an ultrabook, they are with a "real keyboard".
If I buy a chromebook, it has to drop the price around $100. In this case, that is more attractive than a tablet.
