On: The End Of The CrunchPad

[jerome_etienne]

in ALL the comment, nobody even mentioned ChromeOS. I find it surprising. Am i the only one to think it may be related ? both being on the web os

"Crunchpad was canceled simply because google arrived on his market, and arrington decided to drop the ball". It seems a reasonable possible explaination, at least

From the article:

We even hoped to have devices hacked together with Google Chrome OS and Windows 7 to show people that you could hack this thing to run just about anything you want.

I don't think Arrington was afraid of ChromeOs.

i understand your point. I am just surprised how much credit gives to PR.
