Folks,

Reading the CoE press release there are a number of phrases (see below) that I think are particularly interesting.
corporate-ir.net

First the range of products that Intel and Wind are going after appears to be very broad.

-"New Center of Excellence for I/O and Network Processors Based on Intel XScale and StrongARM Microarchitectures."

-"Data storage, networking and communications silicon components."

-"Intel and Wind River will target a variety of Internet-access device, Internet infrastructure and intelligent networking market segments."


The other thing which comes across from the press release is the very high level of co-ordination, co-operation and planning between the two companies.

-"Both companies have a unified, strategic approach for their customers."

-"A joint Wind River / Intel steering committee helps ensure that product road maps will provide a long-term growth path."


Also, it's good to see that the Intel/Wind steering committee plan to make use of Wind's "Protecting domains" technology for high availability products such as Internet Infrastructure (and wireless ?) applications.

-"The Center of Excellence will also provide Tornado 3 / VxWorks AE support for the Intel XScale microarchitecture."
