Netbook Rumors: Dual-OS Netbooks and Android for ASUS

Industry voices are projecting that Acer will launch a dual-OS netbook running Windows XP and Android as soon as August. Chinese source Apple Daily says Quanta Computer and Compal Electronics will be the manufacturers involved.

While Android is free, Acer will still need to pay fees for XP and so the cost shouldn’t be lower than models that primarily use Windows XP.

ASUS and MSI are also supposedly developing Android netbooks, but those won’t come until next year.
