Chrome OS coming to ARM?

[wraggster]

Many moons ago, Google made it quite clear (http://www.engadget.com/2011/05/11/google-no-plans-for-chrome-os-on-tablets-any-other-form-fact/) we wouldn't be seeing its browser-based OS on any tablets or phones, but it never said Chrome OS wouldn't run on devices powered by similar silicon. In fact, the issues tracker at the Chromium OS project shows that work's being done to get Chrome OS compatible with ARM architecture, and in particular a Samsung Exynos 5250 (http://www.engadget.com/2011/11/30/new-samsung-chip-has-two-of-everything-two-cores-2ghz-2560-x/) chip. That Sammy silicon appears to be inside a new bit of hardware, codenamed "Daisy," but deeper digging failed to provide further details about the mystery device. While it certainly seems like Google's working on a new ARM-powered gadget, it's important to note that the Chromium project functions largely via user contributions, so the work might not be directed by Mountain View. You don't have to take our word for it, though. Head on down to the source link to see the evidence first hand, and feel free to form your own opinion.

But isnt it better than Google is initiating Chrome OS on ARM ? I mean they did say that there will be no browser based OS on the tablets but i guess if the tablets do start to come with Chrome OS, it will be a sort of good change.
