I reported yesterday on the news coming out via HKEPC from those naughty Taiwanese moles. Today, HKEPC have posted the info in English along with a summary chart (which looks like its HKEPC-generated.)
As before, they report that the processor is a 90nm processor (doesn’t tally with what Intel told me) and the GPU is an X3000 (which I understand is a Santa Rosa part not compatible with old processors?) There’s also a little bit of information about futures too. Menlow is the codename for the 2008 platform and Intel expects the ultra mobile PC market to hit 10% of the PC market by 2010.
WHAT!
April 1st is over right? Lets read that again:
Intel expectes the share of ultra mobile PC in the PC market will continually go up and score around 10% raising or above by 2010.
By my estimations, the ultra mobile PC is taking something like 0.35% of the global notebook PC market with about 700,000 units to be sold in 2007. [These are my guesstimates – see how I reached these figures here.] 10% of the PC market is something like 50 25 Million units.
While I’d love to see a 400% 300% [corrected] year on year increase, I think there’s been an error somewhere along the way. In fact there’s a few things in the report that smell a bit funny. My money is on ‘fake report.’
