Why no love for the Atom 330 in netbooks?
I'd like to see the dual-core Atom find its place in netbooks some time soon. Enough processing power for high definition video needs to be a shipping feature on a sub-portable device by now. For a mini device to handle that, it should be able to handle just about anything you throw at it.

Also, what's the deal with the GMA 500 drivers and Windows 7 beta? Why don't they work with Aero? The GMA 500 is slow, but it's a Direct X10 part with pixel shaders and can handle Vista's version of Aero just fine. This device (or something similar - maybe with a touchscreen) is going to be on my wish list when Windows 7 ships. I'd like to see the new Windows 7 Media Center running on a compact little device like that.
