Currently, there's a lot of hype around Android on ARM-based netbooks, a type of netbook arriving later this year. However, despite the obvious choice for Android and other Linux systems, NVIDIA has openly stated their preference for... Windows CE. ARM and Asus are also quite sceptical about Android on ARM netbooks.

I dunno. I have limited experience with both OSes.
But it's dreaming of ponies and rainbows about ARM CPUs making a dent in very small laptops (aka NetBooks). Most people want to run the same software they're familiar with on their NetBooks.
Intel ATOM CPUs is where the action is for NetBooks.

Maybe with the launch of iPhoneOS 3.0, that we'll see a hand held device akin to something like a Netbook from Apple some time soon. What would tempt me is if Apple provided a 64gb iPod Touch it would be a good Netbook replacement - but I don't see if happening anytime soon.
