1) Search function. There are quite a few threads on this already.
2) The Intel Atom SoCs use PowerVR GPUs just like most ARM SoCs.

Yes, I know there were other threads, but this is a new article with some new information.
Anyway, you think there will be no standard OpenGL support? Then what's the point in having an Intel CPU with Meego? Part of the nice thing about x86 is the ability to run 'real' OSes, otherwise ARMs are better for small devices due to their power efficiency.

This would probably be the coolest cellphone ever made.

The specs are the same that where discovered by members over here long time ago already and the pic is the winner design of the design by the community over at Nokia Coversation last year...

The entire SoC line of Atoms is based around using the PowerVR core, which has never supported full OpenGL. Not to mention that OpenGL 4 will be compatible with OpenGL ES, so it's a moot issue.
Then what's the point in having an Intel CPU with Meego?

You can't exactly load XP on a Medfield system and have it just work, many of these systems are dropping legacy functionality that older, closed OSes don't support at all. You can still use Wine, though
Some of the links from that article are interesting.
I am a bit skeptical about an Intel Atom in a cellphone, but if this is really true then it would be amazing, especially if it can run standard OpenGL (not ES) programs. In theory, we could install XP on it (dual boot) and play real games...
