#57Earlier quoted context omitted.
Also would love to know if this works. This might eliminate my desire to buy the Android Pixel C device. On the flip side, if this is limited to Chromebooks, this might increase the desire to buy the Chromebook Pixel.
Personally looking at HPs new Chromebook line coming out [0] Very sleek design, better than the Pixel imo, and several tiers if you don't want to start at $1k. [0]: http://store.hp.com/us/en/ContentView?storeId=10151&catalogI...
Know if there's any new Chromebooks like it that are shipping with an LTE chip? I have Project Fi, and would love to have data available wherever I need it.

#58This is a big move and will majorly impact desktop / laptop computing. Now the entire ecosystem of Android apps (even Microsoft Office, Snapchat, Photoshop Express) is going to be available, and arguably this platform is much more complete than say, Universal Apps (Microsoft)
I wonder if support will be limited to Google Play, or whether the framework can be used to run third-party apps such as F-Droid.

#60After the Android Chrome app gets extensions, what's the point of keeping ChromeOS alive? It's the only thing Android's missing that ChromeOS has.
I guess it's more about devices. Sometimes people do want to use laptop or devices with big screen and real keyboard.
