I came across this discussion of Intel's next 2300 wireless comm chip, which includes WiFi, WiMax and HSDPA. What caught my attention was this:

"As laptops become smaller, for example, they will have limited space for new technologies," Intel writes. "Integration also helps enable ubiquitous connectivity on ultra mobile PCs, consumer electronics and handheld devices that have significant size constraints for the number of cards or components."

Now the chip won't be launched for at least a year, but will we really ever see it in a handheld (without getting a major breakthrough in fuel cells, etc.)? Aren't the power and battery requirements too much for a handheld?

Also, keeping mind that Nokia provided the HSDPA technology for the chip, is it feasible that the third generation of the 770 could have a Centrino Duo? I am already thinking about it!
