That's really nice and good to hear. And don't get me wrong when I say (precociously): Don't get lost in ever new advancements. In the end there must be a freeze from time to time to actually roll something out.:D R&B :) As said, don't get me wrong on that and I am more than sure, you know that anyway and act like that, too. It's just a friendly reminder. |

Well, this is one we will be glad to get lost in.I must say I am a little concerned, personally, that so many things are on the back burner, but the sheer weight of what we're looking at now means that things will work that much better for EVERY project we do. |

It is. Check http://bbrv.blogspot.com/2008/08/powerd ... rague.html and http://bbrv.blogspot.com/2008/07/oh-me-oh-my.html All it needs is a desktop case instead of this huge server box in which the eval board is shipped :-) |

One gating factor had been the power consumption of the WiMAX subsystem which puts a drain on batteries. The WiMAX chipset ecosystem has made great strides in this area. But have they met the "low power bar" necessary for wide adoption of WiMAX into mobile devices? .... The data showed how much progress WiMAX device technology has made, even in the last year. Twelve months ago it was difficult to find a WiMAX solution that consumed less than one Watt. Here in a live demonstration, two different manufacturers, in two different configurations, showed low power performance in an unusual public demonstration. Both of these products could be incorporated into effective computing and voice handheld products with battery life performance equivalent to and beyond that offered in 3G wide-band wireless devices that are on the market today, while delivering broadband speeds. ...

Hi all, I want to share with you about a MPC8610 board from Japan, named "Redtail" (name of the hardware engineer of the board) This is smaller 3.5 inch size all-in-one board but still under development. Please post your comment about this board. ------------------------ -lonelywild ------------------------ |
