Star Qualcomm Demos Eee PC 'Smartbook' Running Android
Linked by snydeq on Mon 1st Jun 2009 16:27 UTC
Google Qualcomm showed off a previously unannounced Eee PC running Android at Computex in Taipei. The machine has a 10-inch screen, built-in webcam, and a universal 3G radio that supports all UMTS and CDMA networks on all frequencies used around the world. The 'smartbook' runs on Qualcomm's Snapdragon, a 1GHz ARM processor core that marks a shift away from Intel Atom x86-based netbooks. A second Android-based netbook -- a prototype by contract hardware maker Compal Electronics -- was also demoed at the show. Google, meanwhile, declined to discuss what steps it is taking to adapt the smartphone OS for laptops.

But something tells me that there are some companies that are already not taking US into account. That something is reality and history, and it comes from Samsung and a bunch of Japanese and Chinese companies NOT pleanning to release some of their products outside their respective countries. So get you head out of that US centric ass and think a bit.


Why the f*cking hell would I have a 'US Centric' way of thinking when I am not even from the US! Your lack of location in your profile has killed any possible credibility you thought that you might have had here.
