No ARM/Android netbooks until Q1 2010

  • Sharebar

Asus has published its financial results today and it has revealed some interesting facts.

  1. Asus will continue to produce netbooks powered by Windows XP in 2009
  2. According to Asus CEO, X86 processors are more popular due to wide spectrum of applications available
  3. Netprofit decreased by 94% (this includes overall netprofit though)
  4. Netbooks running other operating system will emerge in Q1 2010. Not before that.

I think it is a right more by Asus. I believe the netbook market is still not enough ready for Android netbooks. The Android OS needs to become more powerful and more mature a bit more before vendors start putting it in their netbooks
