Acer’s Android + Windows powered netbook coming in August?

July 14th, 2009 by Annkur

Though not confirmed by Acer yet, reports suggest that Acer is all set to unveil its first Android based Netbook (which might well be the first Android Notebook to hit the markets) sometime next month. Acer leads the netbook markets and it has its own way to deliver Android to you. The Acer netbook will dual-boot Windows XP and Android – just as announced before.

Many computer manufacturers have shown interest in Android based netbooks, that will help them lower the cost of the system (by avoiding the Windows license fees). However here Acer would be unable to lower the price here as it offers Windows XP along with Android. With Google Chrome OS entering the scenario next year, it is unsure as to how seriously manufacturers shall pursue Android on netbooks (which makes the dual boot option by Acer much more valuable).
