I really didn't expect mobile Fermi cards to show up until they went down to the 28nm process sometime next year.
This seems crazy. I wonder how many CUDA Cores they've cut off to achieve the necessary power and heat requirements. Interesting that they give it even more vRAM than the desktop 480 though. To make up for the fewer Cores perhaps?
Following the commercial success (and technical disappointment) of the original Wildfire -- which featured a miserly 528MHz CPU and QVGA display -- HTC has returned with the Wildfire S.

Hmm.. Well it's branded 480X, but no ones said it's based on the Fermi architecture yet...
@bebop No one except Engadget, then? Or should post titles be completely ignored these days?
@chaos215bar2 Engadget authors are babbling alot....
You know, in their logic the 480 means it must be Thermi. They forget that nvidia is the champion of rebadging old stuff.
