While solid state drives are very well suited for netbooks from a power efficiency viewpoint, they pose problems when it comes to capacity (and performance, but that's another matter). In order to combat this issue, MSI has launched a new netbook with a hybrid approach to storage: it has a solid state drive for the operating system and applications, and a conventional hard drive for storage.

I am still waiting for the first netbooks with fast SSDs. Once fast SSDs will be mainstream netbooks will be the devices to ship them in big numbers is what I am guessing.
There is really no reason why netbook SSDs should stay slow.
I will buy a very fast Linux netbook in 2009. I am fairly sure.
