ARM CEO Robin Saxby says.. on BBC:

SSL's Bluetooth solution

Yes, filter !

Protocol Engine and Software

The Protocol Engine, which runs the Bluetooth Protocol stack in software, typically uses the ARM7TDMI RISC processor. By contrast, SSL?s solution offers support for other processors as well.... (UMPH, YOGKK, Filter !)Smartphone/PDA Platforms

But ..........
To take advantage of the capabilities of 3G systems, new paradigms in mobile handsets are evolving.
SSL has developed a Smartphone IC platform based on the ARM920T, which enables Symbian ready wireless Internet devices. This will be the platform of choice for the next generation of devices running Symbian's EPOC operating system. The basic SmartPhone IC platform developed by SSL enables derivatives to be generated quickly for specific customer requirements. By combining this platform with other Wireless IP such as Bluetooth and GPS, considerable functionality can be added within very short design times.

Virata was mentioned by ARM's Ceo Robin Saxbys.:

CeBIT News: What are going to be the strongest future applications?

Saxby: I think there are significant opportunities in third generation and areas such as Bluetooth. We believe that's going to be very significant and a great opportunity for the Arm7TDMI in a single chip radio, particularly when you get the combination of basestations, where there are pico cellular GSM exchanges instead of DECT digital cordless basestations. Then there's automotive, first into ABS braking systems, then into engine management, airbag control and information systems. There's also smartcards, where we have four partners, including OKI, as well as mass storage designs, networking such as Ethernet, xDSL with Alcatel, Virata. Design wins in the US to date include Thomson/RCA and General Instruments, through our partner VLSI Technology.
