It is most likely toting a hard-drive something like 80/120GB's or so I'd imagine for $200. Besides I thought this would've been $500 --matching the netbook pricing, but perhaps it would then be slaughtered by tablet sales.

I can say I really like the chassis, its definitely thinner than most netbooks (but please offer better colours).
They should couple it with MeeGo, Intel SU3500, ATi 5430 and 3GB RAM. That should make it faster than dualcore Atoms.

Then add a 3-cell (4,00mAh) battery and you'll be getting real-world 8 hours of battery usage.

...But this still won't appeal to the "general" consumer anymore ever since (2010) the tablets are becoming the preferred portable computer and nice ultraportables are shipping like the new MBA's or the newly announced ASUS UX21!
