Samsung to bring Chrome OS Netbook

Wouldn't a Google Chrome OS based notebook come as a refreshing change from the standard Windows 7 Starter Edition? Someone actually thought this and thus, a Google Chrome OS netbook will be introduced later this year. This netbook would be similar to the recently announced N-series netbook N210.

Samsung's Chrome OS running netbook will have 3G built-in, Wi-Fi, 64GB hard drive (SSD?), and will offer 12-hour of battery life. Speculations suggest that Samsung would be using Qualcomm's 1.5GHz Snapdragon processor and it's also possible that Intel's new Pine Trail platform would be used.

Last year, Acer claimed that it will be the first PC maker which will come out with Chrome OS based netbook. And now, Samsung has announced these plans. It's quite possible that both launches would take place simultaneously when Google announces its Chrome OS.
