Unlike some companies, which aren't sure whether to sell netbooks in the US for fear that they might eat into the sales of more expensive products, BenQ is planning on bringing its JoyBook Lite U101 netbook to the US. Of course, BenQ doesn't really have much of a presence in the US PC market to cannibalize, so this decision was...

BenQ wants a bigger piece of the netbook pie

Brad Linder — Mon, 08 Dec 2008 21:52:55 +0000

Acer and Asus may be the dominant forces in netbook sales today, but the netbook market is just a little over a year old. There's plenty of time for some major shakeups.
