My comment was mainly directed at some people's notion that Apple needs to make small and cheap notebooks. They could do that, but obviously don't see a reason for it. Neither do I. The iPhone will likely outsell every Eee sku combined for every quarter from here to perpetuity. You could probably add on a few other manufacturer's systems into the Eee sum and still fall short. On top of the raw numbers, Apple's margins will be higher on the iPhone. It makes a lot more sense to sell this even more cut-down mobile platform.
