I wonder how it compares to the c7 in power consumption and performance/watt.

I can't wait for UMPCs to actually be all they were promised to be.]]>Feb 7th 2007 10:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/07/intel-prepping-x86-based-system-on-a-chip/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/07/intel-prepping-x86-based-system-on-a-chip/
Definitely. This should really reduce the cost and complexity of UMPCs.]]>Feb 7th 2007 11:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/07/intel-prepping-x86-based-system-on-a-chip/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/07/intel-prepping-x86-based-system-on-a-chip/Feb 7th 2007 10:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/07/intel-prepping-x86-based-system-on-a-chip/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/07/intel-prepping-x86-based-system-on-a-chip/Feb 7th 2007 12:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/07/intel-prepping-x86-based-system-on-a-chip/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/07/intel-prepping-x86-based-system-on-a-chip/
It's a great start off in the right direction though since Intel may not bring price to the game, but it sure will bring performance.]]>Feb 8th 2007 6:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/07/intel-prepping-x86-based-system-on-a-chip/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/07/intel-prepping-x86-based-system-on-a-chip/Intel is not trying to add complexity to mobile programmer's lives, but just the opposite. The goal is to be able to leverage existing IA (Intel Architechture) but on the mobile platform. ARM has limited functionality, especially on the multimedia side of things. Being able to shrink the existing Core2Duo in both power and size (and combine it with north and southbridge functionality) would allow the HUGE amount of existing applications for x86 to be used in the UMPC market. Intel is trying to make things easier based on existing standards. ]]>Feb 8th 2007 6:12PM
