Posting interesting point here.
I was involved in developing sub-notebook based on wince 2.0 in around 1998.
As you guess , The result was too bad.
Once people play around with it, people realize that it is not windows. but wince.
and it was running MIPS CPU even not the ARM.
I really like to see this kind of device's success. so let's see what's going on...
I think it is 50:50 chance now and then. all you need is web surfing these days
As a result, If device could provide desktop web experience, it is just fine to most of folks. and plus, media player, email access, IP phone
People, what else do you need these days?

Cellular service providers are likely to go with ARM/Linux-combo
netbook designs in striving for lowest-cost hardware (thereby
minimizing their upfront losses), as well as to reduce the likelihood
of viruses, spyware and other customer-frustrating (and, don't forget,
network bandwidth-consuming) annoyances. And the resultant reduced
functionality won't be the problem it otherwise would be for consumers,
both because the cellular service providers will position the
subsidized offerings primarily as always-online communications
platforms (web surfing, email, chat, social networking, etc), and
because the systems' ultra-low price tags will curb purchasers'
expectations of their capabilities
