"Netbooks as a technology for the most part"

I know people that created books and websites on a netbook, who got though school and business meetings with them. I never seen that for a smartphone.

People absolutely get through school and business meetings with smartphones.

If you visit a community college or know someone who teaches at one, a surprisingly high percentage of students do their homework and write papers entirely on their phone. It's kind of amazing.
