Samsung considering taking on Taiwan netbook vendors in their home market

From Digitimes -

Samsung Taiwan confirmed that its mother company is considering entering the Taiwan netbook market, but the company currently does not yet have any official plans. Samsung's brand name should not have problem drawing Taiwan consumers, as the company already does well in the market with its handsets, LCD TVs and printers. But it may find it difficult to gain a share in the netbook market since Acer and Asus together already have a 60% market share and it will also need to compete against vendors such as MSI, Hewlett-Packard), Toshiba as well as Taiwan-based second-tier vendors.
