[News] Nokia Keeps ARM Support With Linux

Despite Intel backing, MeeGo Linux to support ARM chips

,----[ Quote ]
| MeeGo Linux is being developed as a 
| platform for smartphones, netbooks, 
| internet connected TVs, in-car systems, and 
| other devices where Windows may not always 
| be the best option. The project is backed 
| by chip-maker Intel and smartphone maker 
| Nokia. And so far, every device Iâve seen 
| running MeeGo has had an Intel chip â 
| usually a low power Intel Atom processor.
| 
| But in an interview with The Inquirer, 
| Nokia vice president Alberto Torres 
| explained that MeeGo is an open platform 
| and that it will be available for device 
| makers to use on a wide variety of 
| hardware. In fact, Nokiaâs first MeeGo 
| device will have an ARM-based chip rather 
| than an Intel x86 processor.

N900 Video Call with Skype

,----[ Quote ]
| If you have graced my page before then odds 
| are you know I love my N900. This past 
| Wednesday Nokia released the PR 1.2 update 
| for the N900 and one of the features they 
| added was support for the front facing 
| camera to make video calls via the VOIP 
| services Skype and Google Talk. I made my 
| first video call this evening on my N900 
| and it works quite well!

Linux-Based Pandora Ships with 600 MHz ARM

,----[ Quote ]
| Although Pandora is promoted as "the most
| powerful gaming handheld," the specs lean
| more towards an ultra-portable, pocket-
| sized PC. This portable rig can surf the
| Internet thanks to a built-in Wi-Fi 802.11
| b/g wireless adapter, allow users to
| compose email using its 43-button QWERTY
| keyboard, and perhaps even export high-
| quality video to a TV thanks to its S-Video
| output jack. The Pandora sports a battery
| with a 10+ hour duration.
