Summary
September 21 at 9 a.m. ET is when Google will start taking pre-orders for Googlebook, its new higher-end laptop line.
Googlebook runs on an Android-based version of ChromeOS, with Gemini Intelligence built into the operating system as a central feature.
Magic Pointer is one of the headline AI tools: wiggling the cursor activates contextual action suggestions, and users can also generate custom widgets.
Acer, ASUS, Dell, HP and Lenovo models are coming, while the laptops will also feature a lid "glowbar" and deep integration with Android phones.
Google unveiled the Googlebook brand in May but had shared few official details until now, making the pre-order date one of the clearest launch signals yet.
