Android-Based Asus Netbook Put on "Hold", Probably Cancelled and Waiting For Google Chrome OS

I'm sure you remember that Asus was going to launch an Android-based netbook - dual-booted with Windows XP of course - but it looks like it's actually placed on "hold." The CEO, Jerry Shen, has said, "I don't see a clear market for smartbooks." This is definitely looking like bad news for Android fans out there. On a side note, I'm sure Asus would love to create a netbook with Google Chrome OS on it - quite possibly the next big thing.
