SD,

I've used a netbook and an iphone and an ipod touch. There is absolutely no chance an iphone or an ipod touch can take the place of a netbook for mobile computing, i.e. email, browsing the web, etc. Just as there is no chance a netbook can take the place of an iphone for making calls and taking photos. Just as a neither a netbook nor an iphone is going to take the place of an ipod touch for very portable multimedia and games. The primary market for each of these devices is different despite an overlap in features in many areas.

Oh - I absolutely agree, but there actually are a few induhviduals out there who DO have that viewpoint. Whether they're sincere or just trying to be gadflys is the $64,000 question.
