One of the biggest stories out of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Summit in Maui isn’t just about Qualcomm — it’s how Google is finally merging Android and ChromeOS to create a new operating system for computers. Qualcomm CEO Cristiano Amon revealed that it’s finally happening, and now, a Google exec has revealed when it’s happening, too.
It’s “something we’re super excited about for next year,” said Google’s Sameer Samat, head of Android Ecosystem, at the tail end of Qualcomm’s announcement keynote.
No, I’m not excited at all
I don’t know if we’re guaranteed to see the same level of support for Android based devices, and if Google decides they’re not marketable enough, they could drop support as soon as before they even launch as they have with previous hardware initiatives.
