Google Cloud Printing for Android 2.1+ and iPhones: Requires a Windows PC to Work

The service became available first (December 2010) for Google’s Cr-48 Chrome notebook. They just launched a beta release of the service that works with Google Docs and Gmail on smartphones with HTML 5 complianet web browsers (iPhone, Android OS 2.1+, etc.).
