Intel Expands Atom’s Reach into Cars & Mobile Phones
Intel is shifting its Atom-focus from MIDs (thank goodness, this vertical is a dog). Instead we’ll be seeing a greater focus on in-car infotainment and netbooks and possibly x86-based mobile phones. It’s going to do this by tweaking the chipset to further optimize it for other power sensitive scenarios Intel sees as the new hotness in x86.
This small wonder is a fundamental new shift in design, small yet powerful enough to enable a big Internet experience on these new devices. We believe it will unleash new innovation across the industry.”-Intel Executive Vice President Sean Maloney
