iPhone vs. Netbook: Which Will Be the Biggest Gaming Machine?

Good question - I reckon this is the latest battle ground for the smart phones and netbooks too. It's a HUGE, YOUTH dominated market, i.e. a golden goose. The challenge the netbook has is that anyone who's serious about games on a computer will opt for more juice - netbooks choke on media. The iphone isnt much better in that respect, but you get a brilliant device that can do a hundred other things for you and it IN YOUR POCKET. So while it wont lure many hardboiled gamers, it will appeal to the light to moderates - Include, ofcourse, the other less popular smart phones in that category.
Will Apple be the BIGGEST gaming machine or not? T answer that you gotta answer this: Will Apple's succes with the ipod, itunes phenomenon and its seductive, cohesive design aesthetic, that unified hardware, software and the web in an intuitive way for the consumer, is being replicated with the iphone, app store experience? If the answer is yes, then it aaplies for mobile gaming as with other app sales, that Apple is in a league of its own - no pun intended.
