Intel Banias pushed back six months? <EDITED - see confirmation> Stuffed into an article on the DELL "thin and light" Inspiron 4150, is this from Intel's Robert Manetta: While Intel's Pentium 4 Mobile processor is its most recent product, a new Intel chip, code-named Banias and developed specifically for mobile computers, is set for release in the second half of 2003. Robert Manetta, mobile computing spokesperson for Intel, explained to NewsFactor that in the past, the company has designed microprocessors first, then tailored them to fit on either a server, a desktop PC or a laptop PC. "This is the first chip we've produced that is designed from the bottom up to be used in mobile computing," Manetta said. newsfactor.com As recently as 5/29, in an article about the first Banias demo, xbit labs reported that the chip was due at the beginning of the year: xbitlabs.com Earlier articles said that Banias would be Intel's first 0.09µ chip and also affirmed the early 2002 date. Maybe Intel feels they don't want to have the problem of selling a lower-MHz chip than the P4 when AMD is in the midst of its Hammer ramp. EDIT - just found this - Otellini also disclosed details regarding plans for Intel's upcoming "Banias" mobile processor architecture. Banias processors will be based on a new core design initially optimized for mobile applications and will incorporate innovative low-power technologies to extend Intel's leadership in mobile processors. Banias will deploy new low power circuitry and design techniques to deliver higher performance at lower power. It will also incorporate technology to help enable a new generation of notebooks that will be capable of seamlessly connecting to the Internet and other networks. The technology is expected to be available in the first half of 2003 for the mobile market segment. Over time, Banias will also be incorporated into ultra-dense server products and small form-factor desktop systems on Intel's web site at intel.com So the slip is CONFIRMED Petz
