The recent rumors of an forthcoming Verizon Android tablet prompt this question: Whatever happened to Google’s Chrome OS? Granted, Google never led us to believe that the Web-based OS would be available to consumers before the second half of the year, but it’s a bit surprising just how little we’ve heard coming out of the Chrome camp.
But now, it seems that the first Chrome OS-based device may actually hit shelves. According to a story over at Venture Beat, Acer is set to become the first company to launch a device running the operating system. The unnamed piece of hardware is rumored to be making its debut at Computex, held June 1st to June 5th.
There’s nothing official about the reports, however. Venture Beat hasn’t cited any of its “multiple sources,” but I guess we’ll all know the answer in a couple of weeks.
