Elmer, Re: "I don't remember seeing the term "Intel Micro Signal Architecture" used before. This PDF file shows a description of Intel's intention to combine Flash, XScale and Analog in one process on one die." I took notes on that during the IDF keynotes. I think that's when Intel first introduced the concept. I believe that their eventual direction will be to integrate the low power and high performance of the X-Scale CPU, the high density and advanced capabilities of Intel Flash, and the analog circuitry of Intel's MEMS research all on a single piece of silicon. That will be the ultimate in low cost, powerful, feature-filled solutions, and it should put Intel well ahead of their competitors. As for Ovonics, it seems that Intel is pursuing a number of flash technologies. It might be a hedge to see where the industry will go (as the slide says, only one or two of the six technologies are likely to become mainstream), but it does seem like Intel is doing quite well in researching multiple areas. Hopefully, they are successful in developing the next big flash technology. wbmw
