    • ]]>     As you might already know intel has released a new chipset to it’s x86-64 family. The i7 is the successor of the core 2 duo and the 5th installment in Intel since the pentium series.

    This new line of processors shows great improvement over the core 2 duo architecture. Most notably is the one die memory controller and the QuickPath interface. However make it a note that AMD has been using a similar technology for the past 8 years. 

    The i7 is defiantly a step in the right direction and seems that Intel does not cease to amaze me in designing new and innovative products. Currently the processor is shipping in three models, but rumors say that we will see a mobile version of the processor by first quarter next year. Keep it up Intel you are kicking AMD’s ass and I am liking every minute of it! 

    Don’t forget to submit your own feedback and anything I missed below.

    • ]]>     Sorry to all you Windows Mobile fans but if you have had a bad day then what I am about to tell you is going to make it slightly worse. According to tips given to CNET  by Microsoft the release date of windows mobile 7 has been pushed back once again. 

     

    This defiantly spells disaster for the Windows Mobile platform. With the android platform finally out and the iPhone taking most of the market windows mobile is really going to have to kick it into gear to compete. 

     

    Among some of the features that are highly expected to be part of the release is advanced gesture recognition, using technology similar to the iPhone and possibly using the camera as means for reading gestures. Better speech input and enhanced active sync features are also expected for this new version of the windows mobile software.

     

    With Windows Mobile 6.1 just hitting the streets I think Microsoft is really going to have to rethink the Mobile platform and bring something more than just enhanced features. I wish I have more on this topic but seeing as Microsoft has said little to nothing about Windows Mobile 7 I am left with little to tell.
