Sony, who is desperate for a “big idea” that sells, is tipped to be one of the first vendors to launch a Chrome OS notebook.

According to Sony insiders the Company who doesn’t design or manufacture their Vaio notebooks but instead sticks their label on OEM manufactured models, is planning to launch a PlayStation tablet, dual-screen clamshell and sliding PC as well as a Chrome OS notebook and “VAIO Hybrid PC” according to Engadget.

The Chrome OS device is reportedly modelled after Google’s own Cr-48 reference design with roughly the same dimensions and keyboard but a slightly smaller 11.6-inch screen, and NVIDIA’s Tegra 2 display technology plus 1GB of RAM and 16GB of flash storage. Sony’s also shooting for eight hours of battery life, and a weight of just 2.2 pounds.

The Sony “Hybrid PC,” is supposed to be thin-and-light and incorporates a Core i7 notebook and delivers up to 16.5 hours of battery life.

It also has Intel Thunderbolt and an internal SSD, all of which plugs into a dock of some sort that adds a Blu-ray burner and external graphics (by AMD) for gaming and multimedia.
What is not known is whether any of these projects will be delayed due to the recent earthquake and tsunami in Japan that severely damaged several Sony factories.

Insiders are saying that due to Sony moving offshore for a lot of their design and manufacturing the projects might stay on track, however there are concerns over some components that come from Sony factories.
