The two have totally different uses. While i'll agree smartphones will be adding more features that will make it similar to netbooks, they still will not be netbooks. The advantage a netbook will always have would be size, and yes size matters. Can you imagine a powerpoint presentation on an iphone? While it could probably pull it off, you might as well be sitting up close to your tv screen and watch a movie. A smartphone is still just a phone. Sure you can add a few apps, but you can only run them one at a time. So much for multitasking. Bottom line you keep your smartphone, I'll keep both smartphone and netbooks. The coexistance of both is balance. Interesting perspective regarding your idea that netbooks will become equal to smartphones. The two have totally different uses.
