Intel to Add WiMax, 3G Support to UMPC Chipsets

Intel's about to announce embedded support for both WiMax and 3G in their upcoming Menlow chip packages, which fit nicely into UMPCs running either Windows or Linux. Intel's Ultra Mobility Group will give the WiMax, 3G, and Wi-Fi options to UMPC builders, but it will be up to these OEMs to incorporate the features into the final build—which in turn ships to you when you send them money. The target date for these look like early 2008, which means it'll probably be mid 2008 before you actually get them. [Yahoo]

Samsung Developing Low Cost, Low Power HD Radio Chips

Samsung is tossing their hat into the ring of HD Radio with an announcement that they will be developing chipsets for this up-and-coming radio format. This is pretty significant because the chips being developed by Samsung are of the low-power and low-cost variety, therefore HD Radio may be able to tap a market that it has yet to grasp: portability. This expands the previous limitations of HD Radio and could allow for portable HD Radio receiver and even implementation into cellphones and other portable devices (Zune?). –Travis Hudson More »

Latest by chicojd: I don't know if the previous post will make it... the HD in HD Radio means ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Not High Def, not Hybrid Digital... NOTHING. Ibiquity (the company who ramrodded this codec through the FCC and NAB) uses this terminology more »

AMD's New Mobile Chipset Gives You 25% More Battery Juice

We know what you're trying to do, AMD. You're trying to steal Intel's thunder by announcing your new M690 mobile chipset before Intel goes live with theirs. You're tempting us by telling us it'll deliver a 25% boost in battery life (that's over 5 hours) and that you'll be partnering with Nvidia (over your own child ATI) and Broadcom for integrated graphics and wireless. And y'know something, it works. But we're still gonna wait and see what Intel has to offer. Just 'cause you never know what else is out there. – Louis Ramirez More »

Latest by Hugh Jass: "a 25% boost in battery life (that's over 5 hours)" Might want to clarify that the 25% boost is not a 5 hour boost, but a boost to a total of 5 hours. more »

Intel's Bearlake Debuting Next Week with DDR3 Memory Support

May 9th is looking to be a big day for Intel. That's when their new Bearlake chipset is expected to make its debut. In a nutshell, the new chipset will let you use DDR3 memory modules on your mobo. Cool, right? 'Cause DDR3 is faster than DDR2? Not really. More »
