Intel will also stop providing Atom Z processors for netbooks by the end of 2009. Intel is in the process of introducing a better platform between netbooks and MIDs.

Intel Atom Z has not made much of a breakthrough in the market when compared to the Atom N series on netbooks in screen resolution and hardware. Its chip line is currently used on the Vaio P or Asus "T91" tablet netbook with touch screen.

There are rumors that Intel is trying to complete processor manufacturing contracts for Acer, Asus and MSI, but in the future, the company will forward the netbook lineup with many changes. Meanwhile, Sony also plans to renew its Vaio P in October.
