Intel Unveils First Demonstration of Mobile WiMAX Baseband Chip
Posted by Ekkie Tepsupornchai in "NEWS" @ 01:00 PM
"Intel Corporation today announced design completion of its first mobile WiMAX baseband chip. Combined with the company's previously announced single-chip, multi-band WiMAX/Wi-Fi radio, the pair creates a complete chipset called the Intel® WiMAX Connection 2300. This development marks another major step in Intel's efforts to deliver an 'always best connected' mobile Internet experience for future laptops and mobile devices."
Intel continues to drive forward with their WiMAX initiative, helping bring us closer to the vision of ubiquitous wireless broadband access. You'll even see a reference to ultra mobile PCs as being a major benefactor of this new technology. There's no definitive word on when the first model will sport this new capability. Validation and testing still need to be done and that is planned for 2007.
