It’s a crossover point when Intel demonstrate a mobile operating system that grew on ARM devices, on their i86 platform and that’s what happened yesterday.
I played around with an image from the Intel pressroom and here’s the Medfield tablet running Honeycomb. Looks like 7 inch to me and designed for Android 2.x rather than 3.x (See buttons.)
Interestingly, most of the PR around Medfield talks about tablets and not smartphones. I wonder if the smartphone focus will come later in the year? IDF perhaps.
In around 2hrs, Doug Davies, head of the tablet and netbook division will be holding a session where we expect to hear more about Medfield, Cedar Trail, Android, Meego and more. We’ll bring you that news as soon as we can.
Why is Honeycomb on Intel interesting? See this article.
