Acer axing 8.9-inch Aspire One in Q2 2009?

Acer could kill its 8.9 inch netbook line
Liliputing — ... And that’s all great news. But DigiTimes reports that Acer is considering eliminating its 8.9 inch netbook line to make way for the new 10.1 inch models. And I think that’s a mistake. If the rumors are correct, the new models won’t be much larger or heavier than Acer’s current mini-laptops, they will weigh a little more and will take up slightly more space in your bag. And I’m going to go out on a limb and assume they’re also going to cost a bit more. ...

Acer may stop 9-inch One production when 10-inch version debuts
(Obsolete Feed) — DigiTimes reports that Acer is considering discontinuing the Acer Aspire One 8.9-inch netbook when the 10.1-inch model debuts. This move would make a lot of sense considering that a 10-inch netbook is considered ideal by many users. If Acer does stop producing and shipping the 8.9-inch version of the One, it would jive with the story earlier this week where reports had the 10-inch version carrying the same MSRP as the current 9-inch netbook. ...
