Intel Provides Sneak Peek into Second Generation UMPCs
Posted by Ekkie Tepsupornchai in "NEWS" @ 03:00 PM
"Intel provided a sneak peek at one of the UMPCs planned to hit the market in 2007 - a Yahoo-branded mobile device - that packs a comprehensive feature set into a small form factor. Technical details were scarce... According to the executive, the devices will not use Core 2 Duo processor, and 'consume approximately half the power of today's CPUs with approximately one-fourth the package size.'"
I'm sure we'll be seeing more details in the coming weeks and months... but it's obvious that Intel heard many of the criticisms regarding the size of the unit and the short battery life. So my question is does the UMPC become more palatable if both of those issues are addressed?
