Viewing that the adoption of Android 4.0 has fallen short
of original expectations and Microsoft will launch Windows 8 in the
third quarter of 2012, Google is likely to launch Android 5.0 (Jelly
Bean) in the second quarter and appeal for adopting Android 5.0 and
Windows 8 in the same tablet PC, according to Taiwan-based supply chain
makers.
Android 5.0 will be further optimized for
tablet PCs, while Google will also integrate its Chrome system functions
to push dual-operating system designs. Brand vendors can either choose
to adopt only Android 5.0 or add Android 5.0 to Windows 8 devices with
the ability to switch between the two OSes without the need to shut down
the computer.
Through Android 5.0, Google also wishes to earn another chance to enter the notebook and netbook markets.
However,
since Android 4.0 did not perform as well as expected, several of
Google's downstream partners are turning conservative about Android 5.0.
