Google Android 5.0 to arrive next quarter?

Posted on Friday, February 17 2012 @ 22:08 CET by Thomas De Maesschalck

The adoption of Android 4.0 "Ice Cream Sandwich" has fallen behind expectations, but according to sources at Taiwanese supply chains Android 5.0 may already arrive next quarter:

Android 5.0 will be further optimized for tablet PCs, while Google will also integrate its Chrome system functions to push dual-operating system designs. Brand vendors can either choose to adopt only Android 5.0 or add Android 5.0 to Windows 8 devices with the ability to switch between the two OSes without the need to shut down the computer.

Through Android 5.0, Google also wishes to earn another chance to enter the notebook and netbook markets.
