"Following the introduction of our new strategy in 2012, we will discontinue our 10.1-inch (netbook) product range in Q1 2012, in favor of ultraportables (11.6 and 12 inches) and ultrabooks to be launched in 2012."
This is quoted from an e-mail Samsung sent to its trading partners. Samsung is discontinuing their 10.1-inch netbook line to focus on producing 11.6- and 12-inch Ultrabooks instead.
This may not come as a big surprise as the market is so stiff that different products just come and go. And surely Samsung made an intensive study about this move. The question that may arise now is what Samsung does with Intel's Ultrabook platform.
