I think battery life usage in Android are consider normal as a multi task mobile OS. further more I believe this can be over come by allowing users switch on or off multi task functions. or support long life mode.
What good about Android is that, every things are ready. html 5 and JS can be solve easily by porting WebKit engine over to Android and every things done. ChromeOS, lot of things need to be done and implements, eg, multi task, 3G/GSM, wifi and etc... look like is an re-create Android OS. Well, of cause... it end up still whether they wanted to support a more powerful hardware like Netbook or some things similar to iPad, an extreme light weight mobile entertainment media...
