Lenovo, Acer to launch Tegra smartbooks with Google's Chrome OS

From Shanzai -

Both Lenovo and Acer will probably launch Tegra-based smartbooks running Google's Chrome OS later this month. Nvidia's Tegra itself is due to make an appearance sometime soon and appears to have a won over Microsoft's Zune as well.

Given that mainland manufacturers have been using ARM processors for years in mobile phones and appear not to have any loyalty or affinity for a specific platform or OS, if the initial units sell well, we can expect a myriad of designs and colors by mid-2010.
