We posted a video earlier this week of Hexxeh using Chrome OS Flow on a tablet. The tablet in question is called the O2 Joggler, a multimedia tablet that comes at a very low cost – around $80. The system specifications are less than a typical netbook, and it doesn’t come with a battery, so it has to be plugged in all the time.
Here is a more complete video of an O2 Joggler running Ubuntu and Chrome browser with the ChromeTouch extension.

A few days ago Hexxeh showed off his newest Chromium project, which is porting his Chrome OS Flow build over to a tablet. Supposedly the device used is an O2 Joggler. Today, he’s posted an early version that is working with touch.
I can’t wait to get my hands on a Chrome OS tablet.
Hexxeh’s Working on a Chrome OS Tablet

He ain’t talkin’ any more about it, but he posted this picture of a tablet running Chrome OS Flow earlier tonight.
I’m guessing based on the wires plus that this thing look torn apart that there’s no touch capability or input otherwise yet. But since Hexxeh’s been able to get a broad amount of hardware working on Flow maybe something significant will come out of this.
Hardware cost: $80. I was thinking it must be one of those Chinese ARM tablets, but Hexxeh confirms its x86.
I’m really hoping that we see a tablet with Chrome OS come out this year.
