ChromeOS + USB 3.0 - When?

JMAP · 01-29-2016, 04:19 AM

As an avid ChromeOS user (work & personal), the recent updates available in v46 has enabled usb 2.0 displaylink hubs to be a viable option. Issues with this;

most USB 2.0 docks only allow for a single screen. Not appropriate for most corporate offices by today's standard
USB 2.0 docks are not common - everything is coming out USB 3.0

Does anyone @ displaylink know if this is something either Google and/or Displaylink are working on? Is it even possible (i.e. drivers are available for Google to take on)?

Would be great to hear what is possible and who'se court this is sitting in atm (ChromeOS or Displaylink that it)
