Google announced two brand-new ChromeBooks on Google I/O Developer Conference 2011

Chrome stars today’s conference of Google I/O, including new Chrome version, optimized Chrome App store and Chrome OS. Chrome OS, being the focus of today, gets more attractions, but regretfully no new Chrome OS released. Instead, two new Chrome notebooks are released during the conference.

Sunda Pichai, vice present of Google said the Chrome notebook CR-48 received great popularity, which means more and more business clients starts to accept Chrome OS. For this year, Acer, Samsung and Intel would become new partners of Chrome OS, and the future Chrome notebooks would be called as Chromebook.

Sundar Pichai made a live demo of Samsung Chromebook and Acer Chromebook. 12-inch Chromebook from Samsung marks 8-second start-up and 8-second stand-by, with 2 colors for users’ preference. 11.6-inch Chromebook from Acer features 8-second start-up as well but 6.5-hour stand-by.

These two pieces of Chromebook will cooperate with American local carriers so as to launch the Wi-Fi version and 3G version, but the contract price of the 3G version Chromebook has not been announced yet. As for bare version price, Samsung Chromebook prices at $429 and Acer Chromebook prices at $349. Both of this two will be put into the American market on June, 15, 2011 and later in another six countries in Europe.

 In addition, Sundar Pichai also demonstrated a piece of PC based on Chrome OS. This product is Samsung branded and with a name Chromebox. But the detailed specifications of Chromebox remain unknown.

Google released Android 3.1 OS and Music Beta at the opening day of Google I/O Developer Conference 2011

In the remarkable Google I/O Developer Conference 2011, Google does not disappoint anticipants with their new and upgraded products and services. At the opening day of this remarkable conference, Google released several long anticipated products and services, including the Android Honeycomb 3.1 and the Music Beta by Google.

Honeycomb is Android’s specific tablet OS which has been considered fairly well, but indeed need updates to be perfect. This new Android Honeycomb 3.1 will fix some of the minor problems we had with Honeycomb, like not being able to scroll through recently-opened apps or not being able to re-size widgets.

Music has long been a weakness of Android’s–its stock music app is jarringly bad, both ugly and confusing, and without a native music purchase system like Apple’s iTunes or Microsoft’s Zune. Music Beta by Google (or, Google Music) is a Cloud music service, which is not a store like iTunes, or a subscription service like Rdio or Rhapsody, but more of a specialized chunk of online storage. You upload your music (20GB, at first) to this storage locker online, and then can access it from your Android device–as long as you have an internet connection.

Other new things of this conference are just like what I predicted before. The Ice Cream Sandwich plays an important role in this conference. One we did not expect to emerge is the Android@Home, an open-source project that’ll let developers create home automation apps with any appliance that’s plugged into an Android@Home receiver. Google also announced the Android ADK, a sort of collection of tools to allow hackers and developers to make new stuff with Android and an Arduino microprocessor.

The conference is still on the way, and we think that there must be more new surprises to be announced. Just wait for the latest news about the conference.

Most of the technology sites and blogs are abuzz with the ‘expected launches’ of various products and services from Google. Here I have listed some long anticipated products or services that may be launched in this annual conference:

Google Chrome operating system: been anticipated for long. As the rumors on Chrome OS surfaced few days back, we can expect Google’s announcement about the Chrome OS.

Google Music Beta: just like the Amazon Cloud Music service, allows users to store music in cloud and enjoy through browsers.

Android 2.4 Ice Cream Sandwich operating system: it may add some features of Honeycomb to the Android 2.3 Gingerbread OS.
