Netbook Sales 2009

Netbooks aren’t really much older than 2007, and they really gained a foothold in 2008.  Although some dismiss netbooks as just a fad, the least data from a company called DisplaySearch suggests otherwise.  Netbook shipments are still growing, and according to their most recent report, netbook shipments are up 103% from last year.  Whats more, the company projects that even more netbooks will be sold in 2010 than in 2009, but the year over year growth will slow down a bit.  Translation – sales will grow, but not as quickly as they did from 2008-9.

At the same time,  DigiTimes reports that Samsung is poised to ship more units than the current leader Asus.  We’re not suprised – Samsung has a killer line-up right now, with the budget N130 and N140netbooks up to the Ion-packing N510.
