Google Chrome OS behind the scenes preparing for tablets
Several changes in the source code of the operating system Google Chrome OS is a clear indication that the search giant is preparing a OS designed for laptops to work with the tablet.
Google is already playing with the idea of transfer Chrome OS on the tablet; last year she even made a model and models of tablet-based operating system Chrome OS, and had the intention at the time included the ability to work with touch devices. However, the former CEO of Google, Eric Schmidt said last year that Android for sensor devices and Chrome OS for traditional computers with a keyboard.
The boundary between Android and Chrome OS rather blurred, according to the company CNET. She found few changes in the Chrome source code and Chrome OS, which means, working to create tablet version. These changes include new references to the touch version of the Chrome OS, references to the plates on the basis of Chrome OS and a new page bookmarks, optimized for touch screens.
If Google is indeed preparing to release Chrome OS for tablets, what does this mean for the Tablet OS, Android Honeycomb? The most outstanding tablet-based Honeycomb, Motorola Xoom, sold out in a volume of 100 000 copies, and it is quite a mediocre start to the new device based on the new OS, especially compared with sales iPad 2.
Tests whether Google Chrome OS on the tablet for the sake of an experiment or doing it to try different strategies to compete with the iPad? Obviously only one thing: we will soon know about it.
