HTC Built Google Chrome OS Tablet Coming in November – Free on Verizon?

by Jay Garrett on August 18, 2010

There’s talk about a Google Chrome OS tablet which is said to be bolted together by none other than HTC.

The Google branded slate will probably be sporting a 1280×720 res screen, 2GB of RAM, 32GB SSD, Nvidia Tegra 2 graphics, GPS, webcam, and will connect using WiFi and 3G.

A release date of November 26th (for those that love to join the shopping crush this is also called Black Friday!) and according to the source it will be sold through Verizon at a subsidised price or even for free on contact – OUCH! All that might hurt iPad.
