There have been rumors floating around for some time about a netbook running an Android OS, and now it seems that an official product has a name and a price: Skytone’s Alpha 680 for $250.

Beyond that Computerworld claims the Alpha 680 is smaller and lighter than ASUS netbooks and it will run a 533 MHz ARM11 processor. A full list of specs are already available on Skytone’s website.

If all goes as planned, we should be seeing a product on store shelves sometime in the next 3 months or so—although there are no guarantees it will be on time and on price. [Boy Genius via Computerworld and Phandroid]
