Intel's best chips are still ahead of it
CHIPMAKER Intel's Moorestown, Oak Trail and Pine Trail details were given with tablet and phone schedules by Chipzilla's ultra mobility group chief Anand Chandrasekher at Computex 2010.
Tablets using Intel's Atom Z6xx series processor variant Moorestown will appear later this year, Chandrasekher said, with phones arriving in the first half of 2011. Moorestown is "very similar" to Oak Trail, a chip expected next year, but the mobility group boss explained they differ in that Moorestown is for Meego and Android while Oak Trail is Windows focused and specifically for netbooks. Intel expects Android's Froyo release to be ready for its chips by the third quarter.
Chandrasekher admitted that Moorestown power consumption is average for the target market but claimed first class performance despite that. He hinted that the price for Moorestowns will not be cheap, saying "you can expect us to be hungry but not stupid".
Chandresker also talked about Pine Trail. It is already available and is described on the company's website as a 2010 Atom netbook processor. But Chipzilla has not given it an alphanumeric series number yet, unlike Moorestown, which is the Z6xx series. In a bizarre twist despite Pine Trail being linked to a previously unknown "innovation platform" called Canoe lake by an Intel press release quoting its architecture group co-general manager David Perlmutter, Chandrasekher denied any knowledge of Canoe Lake with the ultra mobility chief asking The INQUIRER, "where did you hear about that?" Perhaps he doesn't read the Intel architecture group's press releases.
The future product Chandrasekher was ready to talk about was the son-of-Moorestown called Medfield, a 32nm scale system-on-chip (SoC). He said it is "tracking nicely the milestones" and it will have "significant" size and power reductions over Moorestown, which has a 21mW idle power consumption. He declined to give any timetable for its commercial launch. µ

It's funny that CPU's with smaller instructionsets are still using less power, funny because although more complexity means more transistors you don't need to use them all at the same time and if you could just use the ones needed at that point it would reduce power and heat, and unlike the RAM access and cache and such that you can't always power down; the instruction decoding should be able to have almost no power when not used, so perhaps they should focus on that next, super low loss transistors in the instruction handling section.
Notice on theINQ, pic of Sandy Bridge, OLD Canal Bridge, look at OLD trees & Brush, Georgetown. ibm. Sandy due to sand used for walk path. OLD cause nnobody lives there anymore.not since 1813
Now take thePONT, if Reader Keeps up HolyPurp help do 200 deaf children in US. Thats meaty Appitite. So Where to Trial, as Preliminaries are past, with FREE Press.
Nigeria. Obviously. Of Course, Somalia may have been taken.
Perhaps RED Chinese do Pope Blissful Circumcision. About 9".
Pencil to Tablet, Campaign Started.
Isn't title view that AMD Fuzion did trick, Intel might be at MAX, Engineers in last nm scaling are focusing on Most Complex Internal Enviorment & BESt Is Right BEFORE US.
