Default Atom N280 + GN40 chipset

Was planing to get a Samsung NC10 just a week ago but decided to hold off until the new Atom N280 and GN40 chipset combo arrived. Heard it might arrive Q2/Q3 2009. Is it worth the wait or not?

of course it is as it allows you to run HD content smoothly

Edit: also has lower power consumption

Personally i feel that the current hardware setup for netbooks has been around for some time and if i was buying one, i'd hold out for something fresh like the GN40

But in the end its up to you, and if you are happy to wait.
