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.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.
lets hope it really is better and in the context of mass market sales TODAY and tomorrow...
while thats true OC, you also NEED to keep your eye firmly on the upcoming ball, as i have said consistantly for a very long time now wireless is key as is AVC/H.264 video codecs and hardware assisted at that ,perhaps using the new dirivative of the cell the *"spursengine".
without 11.n/WiMax your screwed in the upcoming markets, if your not already to late that is.

"MIMO 4×4 On a Chip
Quantenna, a Silicon Valley startup announced the world’s first fully integrated 802.11n chipsets with 4×4 MIMO and transmit (Tx) beamforming. It’s designed to deliver guaranteed wireless bandwidth within homes.
Quantenna says they uniquely combine a 4×4 radio transceiver/antenna, concurrent dual band mode, mesh networking and transmit (Tx) beamforming – in a single chipset.

Fujitsu provides an
H.264 video codec chip. It’s the first technology solution to support both the H.264 format and UWB based on the WiMedia standard. WiMedia Alliance uses Ultrawideband (UWB) in a band of frequencies from 4.2 to 4.8 GHz or higher. Their
Wireless USB standard claims a data rate of 480 Mbits/s and works by compressing and expanding HD video images.

"India: 20% of Global WiMAX Users
A recent decision by India’s Department of Telecommunications to allocate and auction WiMAX spectrum at 2.3 and 2.5 GHz, will enable India to connect over one billion new customers, proclaimed WiMAX Forum president Ron Resnick this week.
The WiMAX Forum today highlighted activity in the burgeoning Indian market. They project the Indian WiMAX market, including devices, will be worth $13 billion in 2012. This market projection takes into account 27.5 million WiMAX users, or 19 million WiMAX subscribers in 2012, representing approximately 20% of the global WiMAX user base. According the Indian government, the Indian economy is currently growing at 9% year over year; with an additional 8-10 million mobile phone subscribers every month.

Low Power WiMAX Chipsets Accelerate the Broad Adoption of WiMAX in Mobile Devices
October 7, 2008 2:43 PM | Permalink
By Haig Sarkissian, WiMAX20/20
Broad adoption of WiMAX networks and the fulfillment of the WiMAX "vision" greatly depend on the proliferation of WiMAX chipsets into battery operated mobile devices, including handsets, ultra mobile PCs and a variety of consumer electronic devices.
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.

*"spursengine" shame about the missing PPC/altivec, but the added fuctions they are bringing right now are potentially a very good and lucrative long term thing as a CPU assisted Gfx codec and hand control.
