<But even in laptop space Mhz sells and should be interesting to see what performance/MHZ rhese run at.> Intel does have killer laptop line with CuMine/geyserville. On a slightly different topic: AMD is now shipping upto 500MHz on the K6 laptop line. MHz may be the key reason why HP recently added K6 SKUs for its laptop line. We may have a situation here where 0.18u K6 is benefitting at the expense of 0.25 Celeron.

kash - <600Mhz with wall power and optionally at 450 or 500 in laptop mode.> It may do significantly better than this out of the gate. <I also don't understand the wireless statement. I was aware of bluetooth being developed by a consortium, but I understood this is separate from CPU.> Bluetooth is separate from the CPU. What I am saying is that this class of device will be extremely important to the deployment of Bluetooth and wireless technology. Bluetooth, wireless, networking capability, etc. is <extremely important to Intel's overall strategy as to what kind of a company they want to be going forward, and is also extremely pertinent w.r.t. to how Intel perceives the IT landscape going forward. <Perhaps Intels has a fully integrated chip including wireless if I understand it correctly.> No not what I meant. I was speaking in overall system capability, the importance of how Intel perceives connectability to other devices, etc. <But even in laptop space Mhz sells and should be interesting to see what performance/MHZ these run at.> Bingo!! <Any more information you can divulge without violating NDA would help the discussion.> Think in terms of what kind of capacity might be warranted to deploy such a strategically important initiative.
