Metro Chrome for Windows 8
Google's support for Windows Phone is in shambles. But it has been
reported that Google is working on a Chrome browser for Windows 8 that should
work on some tablets. Today Google announced the next dev channel release of
its Chrome browser which will have integration with Windows 8, including snap
view and charms. There are new universal buttons at the Charms that slide out
from the right side of the screen which includes Search, Share, Devices,
Settings, and Start. With the Windows 8 integration the Chrome browser will
look pretty nice. This version of Chrome is being constructed especially for
desktops and laptops. It will not be available on Windows RT (ARM devices).
Microsoft doesn't want competition on ARM devices so there will be some tablets
that won't be able to run the app. There are Windows 8 devices which include
Asus Transformer Book, or Asus Tablet 810 that will be compatible with Chrome.
