Intel is entering the smartphone and mobile internet device (MID) market with its Moorestown Atom chips. The Moorestown is a power efficient Atom processor variant due to be released by 2010. It is built for use in high-end smartphones, MIDs and tablets.
It is safe to state that Intel’s Atom chips are the standard processors for netbooks. But Intel has until now not been able to enter the smartphone or MID market, simply because its processors are too power hungry to become usable on these devices. Now Intel is hoping to change the situation with Moorestown.
Meanwhile Apple is also working on building chips for future iPhones, iPods and tablets. So will Intel have to compete with Apple in future? It is very much likely.
