Acer Google Chrome OS Netbook
Chrome OS Release Candidate is Ready – We Are Almost There
This is not so surprising because Acer announced long back that “We’ll have the first Chrome OS Netbook“. If we have to believe this news, the mass production of the device will start in the second half of September, which is only 3 weeks away !
http://macles.blogspot.com has unearthed specs of an upcoming acer netbook with Chrome OS from couple of bug reports.
Rumored Specs
- 1.66GHz Intel Atom N455 CPU
- 1GB of memory
- 8GB SanDisk pSSD (solid state disk)
- Ambient light sensor
- WiFi, Bluetooth wireless connectivity
There’s still no word on the pricing or release date, but the blogger suspects that  we could see a release pretty soon, based on the progress of the reports.
A solid clue for the release date of the Acer ZGA. PVT (Production Verification Test) is the last stage in hardware development before MP (Mass Production) and usually takes a few weeks. I guess/estimate MP will start in the second half of September, with volume shipment to stores towards the end of the following month. I expect Google to also release the public beta of Chrome OS in that time frame. says the blog post.
