Somewhat disconcerting news about ChromeOS if it's true. To me it now looks like Android was just a stepping stone for Google to eventually become the doorway to the internet for a huge audience, something it couldn't achieve alone with Chromebooks. The privacy implications of using ChromeOS in this way are frightening. Say you log in with a Google account. Assuming you are like most people and don't read/know/care/understand about privacy options Google could theoretically have your web history, your email (GMail), viewing habits (Youtube), your documents (Google Docs), your social interactions (Google+), purchase history (Checkout) and now your location at all times (aGPS), contact list and call history. Now with Dart, NaCl and their Web Store they'll also be responsible for licencing you your games and applications. Assuming they will want all this (I have no doubt they will) they now have a new 'privacy' policy they can combine all this data. That's a kind of control and knowledge Microsoft hasn't even dared dream about. I'm not calling Google evil. No one is forcing users to do this and Google are not alone in doing this....
