Sony to make a Chrome OS laptop and a Hybrid PC laptop!

Looks like Sony has two PCs in the making- a Chrome OS laptop and a Hybrid PC laptop! The Chrome OS notebook will be modeled after the CR-48. It will have a 11.6" screen, a Tegra 2 GPU, 1GB of RAM, and 16GB of flash storage. Sony is aiming for 8 hrs of battery and a feather-light 2.2 lbs.

As for the Hybrid PC, this will be very thin and light. It will even get 8-16 hrs of battery, despite using a Core i7 processor! The computer will also have a Thunderbolt port and an SSD.

No more CR-48 laptops to ship, but partner devices and Chrome OS/Honeycomb devices coming out mid-year!

Oh, no! Google's Vice President of Product Managment tweeted that Google ran out of Chrome OS CR-48 laptops. But, oh yes! He also included that partner Chrome OS devices will arrive by mid year.

"Sorry that we have shipped all units for now," tweets this employee. "Thanks for your interest and we will have partner devices out mid-year."

Also note that he says "For now." That hints that Google will produce more later. Additionally, Google has hinted that they will somehow combine Chrome OS and Honeycomb. If you are extremely annoyed, you can find CR-48 laptops on Craigslist for about $500.
