TI has just started to roll out cortexA8 based chips iirc, and in a years time we are probably looking at A9. and im not sure if its intel thats the biggest issue when it comes to low watt x86. via launched what appeared to be a impressive design recently....

How does Intel Atom stack up?

"The chips have a thermal design power (TDP) specification in 0.6-2.5 watt range and scale to 1.8GHz speeds depending on customer need."

I read that the Asus eee 900 will use a 1 ghz. version to be released in May this year.

No, I just doubt the n800 will be supported anymore.

If you refer to this post in december (and that's just one, BTW), I don't remeber you replying.

But-- my post wasn't specific to N800.

And keep in mind that N800 is compatible enough with the N810 that support for the latter means de facto support for the former.

So are you ruling out the possibility of an N810-only upgrade (perhaps due to licensing rather than technical issues) at some point? Or does that de facto merely represent acknowledgement of the obvious glee with which N800 users would pirate any such upgrade?

P) Arrrrrgh, Mateys!

Nope. Nope.

A quick Google search shows that a 500MHz ARM11 consumes about 0.1W on the average. "TDP" specification refers to the maximum amount of power dissipated by the device. In other words, your Atom CPU will consume no less than 0.6..2.5W (depending on the computational load).

Also notice that OMAP2 chips are produced using 90nm technology while Atom will probably start at 65nm and then go to 45nm. If TI goes up the technology ladder, its OMAP CPUs will consume even less power.

So, how does Atom stack up? It does not.

ARM should come up with a new term, PID pocketable internet devices :)

Oh, they stack up... haven't you seen the pictures? Those MID's are huge and thick, great for stacking.
