call me skeptical about this thing until you show me someone actually using it, and not just faking it.]]>Feb 16th 2007 10:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/16/nvidias-goforce-5500-mobile-platform-demoed-in-action/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/16/nvidias-goforce-5500-mobile-platform-demoed-in-action/Feb 16th 2007 10:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/16/nvidias-goforce-5500-mobile-platform-demoed-in-action/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/16/nvidias-goforce-5500-mobile-platform-demoed-in-action/Feb 16th 2007 11:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/16/nvidias-goforce-5500-mobile-platform-demoed-in-action/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/16/nvidias-goforce-5500-mobile-platform-demoed-in-action/Feb 17th 2007 2:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/16/nvidias-goforce-5500-mobile-platform-demoed-in-action/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/16/nvidias-goforce-5500-mobile-platform-demoed-in-action/
It's not a high poly model, NVidia has been making 3D chips for years I find it very hard to believe that they can't make a version that fits into a small form factor.

I am more than sure it's not pre-rendered, that's just stupid. If they can put 3D graphic chips into the smallest laptops and palm computers, why couldn't they put one in this?]]>Feb 17th 2007 1:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/16/nvidias-goforce-5500-mobile-platform-demoed-in-action/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/16/nvidias-goforce-5500-mobile-platform-demoed-in-action/Feb 18th 2007 3:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/16/nvidias-goforce-5500-mobile-platform-demoed-in-action/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/16/nvidias-goforce-5500-mobile-platform-demoed-in-action/Feb 18th 2007 1:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/16/nvidias-goforce-5500-mobile-platform-demoed-in-action/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/16/nvidias-goforce-5500-mobile-platform-demoed-in-action/
To begin with, this is not an *actual* cell phone user interface (UI), ie: one that can be bought or found on a shipping device. It's a conceptual UI demo that we designed in house to show what kind of UIs are possible on a handheld device that is enabled with a GoForce 5500 GPU. Specifically, the GoForce 5500 makes it possible to run multiple graphics applications concurrently, and present them to the user in ways that are more intuitive and more akin to what we have become used to in other devices.

In tech terms, the demo runs in real time on an i.MX31 board running Linux, and equipped with an ARM 11, and a GoForce 5500. The program is operated live, either through a keyboard, or through a game controller hooked up via a USB port. The GoForce 5500 can handle screen resolutions up to XGA, which is what is being shown in this video with the system outputting to a large LCD panel for demonstration purposes, but can also run at VGA and QVGA resolutions.

Hope this answers a few questions - and again, thanks for the support all!
