You remember Android right, Google's 
other OS  that actually exists? Well, Acer's set to launch what could be the world's first Android-based netbook in August. At least that's what 
DigiTimes is reporting second-hand via Chinese-language 
Apple Daily. While two suspect sources won't turn a rumor into fact, Acer's already on record with plans for an 
Android netbook in Q3 in 
dual-boot XP configurations. So hearing that Quanta and Compal will have these out smack in the middle of the quarter isn't much of a stretch.
