Qualcomm to introduce first Snapdragon powered smartbook today

,----[ Quote ]
| Qualcommâs Snapdragon platform combines a
| low power ARM-based processor with wireless
| connectivity including WiFi, 3G, GPS, and
| Bluetooth. There arenât any details on the
| device that will be launched today, but
| itâs a good bet it runs some sort of Linux
| operating system since Windows XP, Vista,
| and 7 donât run on ARM processors.
| Theoretically it could also run Windows CE,
| but all of the demos of Snapdragon devices
| Iâve seen have been machines running Linux.
