Not sure I would include "standard" software or PC operating systems as
a qualification for being a netbook. What do I care if the OS is
Windows, Unix or MinOS as long as it runs the apps I want. Likewise, why
should I care if it is running Microsoft Word (tm) as long as I can do
wordprocessing? I think tying the definition of netbooks to branded
technologies would lock out other strong contenders for no other reason
than marketing.

That's Apple's stance, but no. A netbook is a small laptop designed
for web browsing and other office tasks. It can run standard pc
software and operating systems. The iPhone doesn't qualify, though it
has web browsing and email it does not have wordprocessing, nor can it
run standard software.
