Microsoft isn’t the only company going touch-crazy with its desktop operating system. A new report claims that Google is working on an in-house Chromebook with a touch screen display. If true, this device would pose an interesting third option (and challenger) to the pair of Chromebooks that Acer and Samsung recently released. More important, such a device could combine Chrome OS and Android into a single user experience.
The China Commercial Times claims that Google has already placed hardware orders with Taiwanese manufacturers Compal Electronics and Wintek. Wintek is said to be handling the production of the Chromebook’s 12.85-inch display, which allegedly integrates the touch technology directly into the glass screen itself. The paper claims that Google’s touchscreen Chromebook could appear as soon as the beginning of next year, which seems like a bit of a stretch.
