Director of the Linux Foundation, explained that telecommunications providers should pay close attention to netbook under the Linux operating system and to consider the sale of such netbook at substantially reduced prices in a set of subscriptions for a few years on various projects. A similar strategy is currently being used successfully in the sale of providers of cell phones, which are available to the user with significant discounts, but only in conjunction with the multi-year contracts, which is fully compensated for all costs of the equipment provider.

According to the same way, you can sell netbook, which are often cheaper than smart phones, and have a tendency to reduce prices. Lower cost netbook under Linux in comparison with models under the Windows operating system will give providers more opportunity to maneuver. Providers will also be able to provide additional paid applications for netbook, the costs of which will be relatively small.
