AMD gives a boost to the Geode LX.

Not as much of a reason to celebrate as DirectX 9 support by VIA but good news anyway –  AMD will boost the clock on the LX800 by about 30% and introduce the new CPU as the LX900.

Currently the Pepper Pad 3, Raon Digital Vega, Kohjinsha, Uren and HiPadII are the only AMD Geode UMPSc on the market and through various reviews we’ve seen that although they run XP well, there are limitations. For example, Flash Videos and Skype Video can be slow.

Raon Digital are working a new AMD-based version of the Vega so it will be interesting to see if this has the new CPU. It already makes a great CarPC but if the new model boost the power and includes WiFi and Bluetooth, it will make a good ultra mobile PC better.
