    Canmore is not a crude design. It is a second generation SoC for media playback. It's predecessor, the CE2210 was definitely a cruder device and based on an XScale processor. Canmore is highly capable, IA based, and able to decode any video standard, any audio standard or handle multiple HD streams to display and across a home network. It is equally at home handling cable, decoding blu-ray, managing dvr streams and indexing, or working as part of a connected consumer's digital home.

    Can you read? Because I think that was the point of the article, that Moorestown is necessary to make mobile phones an option. The current Atom is way too power hungry, and even worse is that the chipset for it is larger than the CPU (what with the 130nm process). I'd figure on two years minimum before Atom gets into anything like a smartphone.

    in order to open a jpeg file with an eepc you need 24 seconds and 100% of your cpu usage.
    bla bla bla.
    I know this site is funded by INTEL and probably nvidia.

    .... huh?

    I don't think he was touting the performance of an eeepc with atom. Merely stating that they were being used. yet, you bring up a totally unrelated point...

    AMD fanboi`s tend to do that...

    Fanbois in general tend to do that. If you aren't cheering for their "favorite" company or product, then you must be against them. And then you must be yelled at. Ah, the fun side of the interwebs. ;)

    1W is totally reasonable in > 1,5GHz with 32nm
