ATI's Imageon Chipset had very little competion in the PDA space. In fact the only competition I can remember actually came from Intel. ATI provided the video system, for my Ipaq, and for my Lifebook as well. I don't know that Nvidia has ever really had to great an interest in that market.

Still, obviously the lower power / higher portability market is growing, but Nvidia is wise to watch, wait, and very deliberately decide how and when to enter the field. It's not as if they lack for new ventures and new oportunities outside of that anyway...]]>Dec 4th 2008 3:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/nvidia-still-interested-in-jazzing-up-the-netbook-space/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/nvidia-still-interested-in-jazzing-up-the-netbook-space/Dec 4th 2008 11:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/nvidia-still-interested-in-jazzing-up-the-netbook-space/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/nvidia-still-interested-in-jazzing-up-the-netbook-space/Dec 4th 2008 11:28AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/nvidia-still-interested-in-jazzing-up-the-netbook-space/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/nvidia-still-interested-in-jazzing-up-the-netbook-space/Dec 4th 2008 11:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/nvidia-still-interested-in-jazzing-up-the-netbook-space/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/nvidia-still-interested-in-jazzing-up-the-netbook-space/Dec 4th 2008 11:45AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/nvidia-still-interested-in-jazzing-up-the-netbook-space/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/nvidia-still-interested-in-jazzing-up-the-netbook-space/Dec 4th 2008 11:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/nvidia-still-interested-in-jazzing-up-the-netbook-space/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/nvidia-still-interested-in-jazzing-up-the-netbook-space/Dec 4th 2008 3:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/nvidia-still-interested-in-jazzing-up-the-netbook-space/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/nvidia-still-interested-in-jazzing-up-the-netbook-space/
Imagine all the college kids who would buy them just for class and gaming while in class.]]>Dec 4th 2008 5:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/nvidia-still-interested-in-jazzing-up-the-netbook-space/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/nvidia-still-interested-in-jazzing-up-the-netbook-space/Dec 4th 2008 1:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/nvidia-still-interested-in-jazzing-up-the-netbook-space/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/nvidia-still-interested-in-jazzing-up-the-netbook-space/
Match up an existing low-power chipset that matches up with the the capabilities of say, the Atom processor and scale it down further for more power savings.
Boom, you've got a more balanced low power machine.

Hmm...yeah, it does seem too easy.]]>Dec 4th 2008 2:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/nvidia-still-interested-in-jazzing-up-the-netbook-space/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/nvidia-still-interested-in-jazzing-up-the-netbook-space/Dec 4th 2008 6:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/nvidia-still-interested-in-jazzing-up-the-netbook-space/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/nvidia-still-interested-in-jazzing-up-the-netbook-space/Dec 4th 2008 7:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/nvidia-still-interested-in-jazzing-up-the-netbook-space/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/nvidia-still-interested-in-jazzing-up-the-netbook-space/
Sounds considerably similar to some of Steve Jobs' recent comments on the netbook space. Hmmm... Maybe something *is* up.]]>Dec 5th 2008 7:03AM
