New stronger PDA finally on horizon

Post by Albert Silver »

I saw this announced at Tom's Hardware:

Nvidia Enters CPU Market

"Barcelona (Spain) - Nvidia today unveiled its first CPU. The APX 2500 is a system-on-a-chip (SoC) product that is aiming for Windows Mobile handhelds. Despite the fact that it is not scheduled to hit the market until late this year, the chip is bound to raise more than just one eyebrow.

Basically, the APX 2500 is a cocktail consisting of an ARM11 processor core and lots of technologies borrowed from the GeForce pool.

(...)

The chip clocks have not been disclosed, sans the fact that the ARM11 is running at 750 MHz."

Cool.
