Goodbye old Browser, Chrome to become the standard browser on Android 4.0 and above:
"We saw it coming, but Chrome for Android is the biggest news for Google’s mobile platform this year. It signals that Android will be around for a long time, but we might also look back on today as the day that native operating systems began to die and web operating systems started to take over."
...
"Thinking along those same lines, we can also say that Chrome OS does not currently replace the Android OS, but it sure feels like that is where Google is going. Android is the glue that fills the gap until Chromium OS is ready for mobile devices. I believe Google has had this vision for quite some time, but the technology was not advanced enough to achieve that goal. Back in 2009, we thought that Google would abandon native Android apps in favor of web apps, but that obviously didn’t happen."

This makes me very happy since I just got my chromebook--looks like ChromiumOS is going to stick. BUT, this also sucks because my phone isn't on ICS! What's a guy gotta do to get an Android 4.0 update for the HTC Thunderbolt?
