Google Chrome OS on a Dell Mini 9

Google Chrome OS running on a Dell Mini 9.

It looks like most everything works (touchpad, including tap-to-click, sound, video at full rez)…except the wireless. Hardwired connectivity works fine, though. Maybe in an updated build they’ll add drivers for the mini 9 wireless.

Anyone else out there having success getting it running on a Dell Mini 9?

It looks like they had a new release yesterday, which I'll be trying out this weekend. Anyway, thanks again, appreciate the post!
