Apple to Reduce Prices to Fight Netbooks Air Prices Cut in Half?

The laptop market has been taken over by netbooks these days mainly
because people are looking for sleek, lightweight travel companions that
come in cheap. And Apple knows that! Hence why rumors have it that the
Cupertino-based company is going to slash prices for their MacBook Air,
while also extending its feature set. Unnamed sources for SiliconRumors
said that a feature-rich Air model is expected to be priced somewhere
between $1,300 and $1,500.

Obviously far from the $400 prices we've been used with, the new Air is
still way down from $1,800. And if you consider that it could integrate
3G support, built-in GPS and with everything stored on SSDs, it may not
be such a bad deal afterall.

With a phylosophy for high-end products, it's quite interesting to see
if Apple is going to come up with an entry-level model just to make the
market happy. It's going to be an interesting game to watch, don't you
think?
