Read more.But is it the Chrome OS or the Chrome browser?
Chrome OS still is lacking some day to day programs, such as Skype. I nearly got a Chrome OS laptop at Christmas, but the lack of Skype was a big issue.
Chromebook with Android, very tempted. all my old netbook does is Chrome and play movies now and again. That plus Android apps and GPS is very very tempting.
It's just a large stainless steel android statue, maybe. Nothing to infer, unless you are an analyst who has to write something to get paid.
I still can't see the point of the Chromebook - to me it's only a cheaper, less-featured version of a keyboarded Android tablet with all the drawbacks and none of the advantages.
And ChromeOS sits alongside FirefoxOS (for phones) as a totally unneeded product.
Of course, I'm more than willing to be shown why I definitely need one of these devices.
As to the shiny Android - last time I checked Chrome on my phone was labelled "Beta", so perhaps this is a prop to announce a full Chrome browser for Android - hence "Chrome Android".
I'm with James Kendrick on this one.
I just don't get chromebooks, its like a poor mans netbook, but netbooks weren't exactly expensive, my netbook cost me less than the chromebooks and is much better.
Maybe nothing to infer as another commenter said or it could be a symbol of them uniting , either way I have no devices that run android so i cant tell if anything is going on , so a useless comment then. sorry.
From the comment I posted you can tell that Percy1983 isn't the only one who doesn't "get" ChromeOS. Sure I know that it's supposed to be this ultra-lightweight "everything via the cloud" idea. But I just can't see why - at this point - it's an advantage to anyone other than businesses wanting to make centralised administration easier. So, for the non-business user I would have thought that a conventional netbook would have been a better "investment".
