It has been quite a lot of Google talk lately and we have thoroughly enjoyed it. From the coming of the Chrome Web Store to the Google Nexus S and the Chrome OS but I guess we missed out the most important news here. Google is offering its Chrome OS Netbooks right on the release of the OS itself. The launch was made spicier when Google decided to giveaway a few of these netbooks to selected people for testing. How?

The D: Dive into Mobile event was quite eventful in its own way. We saw the release of the Google Nexus S from Samsung and the coming of the Chrome OS as well. However the more essential announcement in my opinion was the official launch of the Google Chrome Web Store. Call it the the App Store of Google for the Chrome web browser and the Chrome OS, but the name doesn’t matter much as long as it has the name Google linked to it.

Out is the Google Nexus One from HTC and the Nexus line of the Google Android phones. This time as we had earlier reported, it is coming from Samsung and is called the Nexus S, not quite surprised with the Samsung’s S hooked to it. The release of the device had been shoddy specially associated to be coming with Gingerbread, but as reported a couple of days back, it has finally come out on December 6.
The markets will have the Google Nexus S available on December 16, a good 9 days before Christmas to give you the right amount of time to buy it as a gift. For yourself first and then for those you care for or vice versa. The Google Nexus S will be available unlocked on T-Mobile online plan from Best Buy and its Mobile Stores in the US and will shortly make it to the Best Buy and Carphone warehouse in the UK, December 20 onwards. The Google Nexus S will be priced at $529 in the US and £549 in the UK [this is the unlocked price].

The Android phones have done remarkably well. At least for one biggest reason that they the Google Mobile OS is not confined to a particular handset or a carrier much like the Apple iPhone. We have been hearing now and then about an all new Android phone from Sony Ericsson. The best bit about the gadget is that Sony is merging its mobile with the PlayStation to bring us the PlayStation Phone. And these are no longer rumors.
The device will come powered by the latest Android version called the Gingerbread. And will feature the Sony PlayStation Portable like keys. The PlayStation Phone is called the Zeus Z1 and with so many videos being leaked now and then, I am sure we will be having this in the markets by early January or maybe by Christmas.

There has been a lot of fuss indeed over the coming of the Google Chrome OS since July last year. We have seen it running on the Apple iPad and Google’s plans to use the Chrome OS to power iPad competitors alike. But today reports broke out about the upcoming Google Chrome OS Event which is scheduled to take place on December 7 in San Francisco.

It seems like ages when I last talked about Google and its upcoming social network. I came across a post from MG Siegler and thought what exactly is the name of this new project of Google? We have been hearing for long that it is been called Google Me. But I suppose folks back at Google are working under codenames for now, which isn’t all that surprising given that almost all ideas are worked upon with codenames prior to finalizing the concept.

When it comes to the Android 2.3 Gingerbread there has been quite a fuss associated to its release dates. We had initially thought of it releasing in November with the release of the Google Nexus Two from Samsung and then for the end November. But so far it has been everything but true. We are however anticipating it to be coming soon in December.

I have dearly missed the Google Reader app for my Android device and Google appears to have finally paid heed to this need. The Android devices today embraced the official Google Reader for Android based smartphones bringing your subscriptions right to the mobile device.
