Intel pushes Atom into mobile arena with "Moorestown"
,----[ Quote ]
| Despite Intelâs encouraging announcement,
| devices slated to show off Moorestown are
| not expected to hit production until the
| second-half of 2010. One such device will be
| the recently delayed LG GW990, a smartphone
| that features the âMeeGoâ operating system.
| Also the foundation for Moblin, MeeGo is a
| heavily optimized Linux variant built
| specifically to take advantage of the Atom
| platform.

Atom for smartphones brings 10-day standby battery life
,----[ Quote ]
| Moorestown, like all Atom processors, is
| based on the x86 architecture, and is
| expected to run MeeGo or some other Linux
| variant, meaning devices can be more
| versatile than current smartphones.
|
| âThese devices are handheld computers that
| can also make calls,â Kedia explained. With
| a 1.5GHz core speed, theyâre fast, too:
| Intel demonstrated the Linux version of
| Quake III running unmodified at over 100fps
| on a Z600-based prototype smartphone. In
| another demonstration, an animated 3D
| graphical scene played in one window while a
| second streamed 1080p video.

Intel Atom chip for smartphones unveiled
,----[ Quote ]
| The chipset is set to be compatible with
| Google Android and Nokiaâs MeeGo OS, while
| support for Moblin Linux based systems and
| other operating systems look likely to
| follow.

âLG GW990â will not ultimately marketed
,----[ Quote ]
| Unveiled at CES in Las Vegas, the first
| mobile phone based on an Intel chip
| Moorestown will remain finally at the stage
| of concept. LG will not commercialize GW990
| ,the hybrid terminal halfway between a MID
| and a telephone.
|
| Preview at CES in Las Vegas, then at MWC in
| Barcelona, the GW990 will not ultimately
| marketed. We hope that LG will reuse this
| prototype as a basis for the development of
| future smartphones.

Intel's Moorestown Atom launches -- without Windows
,----[ Quote ]
| While all the above was expected, the shocker
| is that the Z6xx has been launched with
| support for three flavors of Linux --
| Android, Moblin 2.1, and MeeGo -- but nary a
| mention of Microsoft Windows. This arguably
| represents the biggest rift in the "Wintel
| monopoly" since the IBM PC was first launched
| in 1981 with Intel's 8088 CPU and Microsoft's
| MS-DOS/PC-DOS operating system.
