"Microsoft is finished. So is Intel, Apple and a bunch of other old disrupted giant silicon valley companies." - Charbax

"Google will be nationalized eventually. They need to become absolutely perfect though first." - Charbax

"You can edit stuff offline on Google Chrome OS as well. That's the feature of HTML5, all the apps work offline, but when you go online, you get the power of the cloud, you could for example encode a HD video in seconds instead of hours, you can also publish the final edit instantly in HD instead of having to upload after editing." - Charbax

"It's been said during the show several times that Chrome OS is for ARM laptops as well = Smartbooks." - Charbax

"You can store and cache files locally and view them offline as well. Loading a PDF is just as fast as a website, through Google's instant "view PDF as HTML" feature." - Charbax

"A larger screen and keyboard maximum ads about 30 dollars to the cost even less. You can source a 15 inch screen on the open market for not much more than 30 dollars more than a 10 inch screen. And the larger keyboard is basically the same price. The only reason Intel+Microsoft "netbooks" are small, is cause Intel+Microsoft are so very scared to take away all of their existing profit margins from larger sized laptops." - Charbax

"You can download Chromium OS today and install it on your current netbook using a USB stick. No problem. It just is, Google is planning for 50-100 dollar netbooks to be available with Chrome OS pre-installed. That will be better." - Charbax

"It works offline. Read up on HTML5 specifications. Any web app with HTML5 offline capability such as email, documents, even photo and video editing will work fine for that." - Charbax

"I'd like to test Chromium OS off of a USB stick and have it automatically update itself as updates are released until we all use it as the main OS when it's ready." - Charbax

"Smaller screens are ok and they are cool too because the device is smaller. Though, ARM laptops can have 12", 13" and 15" screens too, since what you want is just a full screen full resolution web browser. Put the full Chrome browser within Android and you've got all of what most people need." - Charbax

"One can wait for Chrome OS to be available for ARM processors, perhaps later this month. Otherwise just use Android, use the Chrome browser in ARM Android when Google makes it available. Preferably an ARM Cortex A8 based Laptop would perform quite a bit better, esecially for loading websites faster and supporting multiple tabs as hard core web browsing requires." - Charbax

"Archos 5 Internet Tablet is the best hardware with Android at the moment. Archos displays 800x480 medium density on a much larger 2x larger screen. You get the full width of all websites with no zooming in needed. Any app, including twidroid look much better on Archos much larger screen simply because you get 2x more information on the screen. And the Archos is not too big to fit in a pocket, it's smaller than most wallets and passports. Archos costs $249 with no contracts needed, just WiFi or 3G through bluetooth tethering. iphone, droid, palm do NOT support Youtube HD playback. (what are you talking about??) Archos supports real Youtube HD support see http://archosfans.com/2009...... multitouch is a useless gimmick but can easily be added to Android (probably some sort of US-only legal matter because Apple wants to own IP to be the only one to use multi-touch or something, but Google shouldn't have to respect that completely idiotic claim (apple never invented..." - Charbax
