Samsung apparently reckons netbooks aren’t as profitable as they were before. According to a report on Blogeee, Samsung sent an email to its trading partners claiming that they’ll stop making 10.1-inch devices aka netbooks in first quarter of 2012. The exact reason is not known but the email did say that in lieu of the smaller underpowered notebooks, they’ll make 11.6-inch and 12-inch ultraportable and ultrabook devices.
