China’s netbook market offers high margins that no PC or CE vendor wants to miss. However, the market is not as big as it first seems, due to a few factors, reports In-Stat. First, 3G network capacity for data access remains limited. Second, Intel wants to limit market development in order to protect its notebook market. The chipmaker has also launched its latest ultra-low voltage (ULV) platform, which will further overlap the netbook market space. “Future market trends for netbooks in China remain unclear,” says Ashley Liu, In-Stat analyst. “The result may be that the netbook ends up being a transitional product.” www.in-stat.com |
