From PR Web -

Per DisplaySearch Q3'09 Quarterly Notebook PC Shipment and Forecast Report, the netbook market grew 40% quarter on quarter (Q/Q) for Q2 09 as compared to the 22% rate for notebooks, driving their share of the total notebook market to 22.2% of the 38 million units shipped.

Asus, the netbook pioneer, has been steadily losing share because Tier 1 brands like Acer, HP, Dell, Lenovo and Toshiba have become increasingly aggressive in this segment.
