More Tegra buzz...
 
http://news.cnet.com/8301-13924_3-10157562-64.html

Debating whether I should buy any nVidia. Already missed the Palm gravy train last month ;)

edit: I'm mainly kidding. Palm only jumped so much because it was so damn low before.

I am so looking forward to the potential of the Tegra chip. As far as MS is concerned, the rumors of them having their own branded phone have been around for a while now, so who really knows.

Nice battery is a biggie!!!

I think battery size is coming into play.. Pre has the 1500 mAH, Pro has a 1500 mAH. I would bet, 1500 is about to become the standard.

the thing with tegra is not the size of the battery ...its the chip that operates at extreme low power.
It will last longer with a 800 mAH then a current PDA with a 1500 MAH battery

Unless it has some magical battery, that likely is a pretty big exaggeration. The phone will still have to incorporate a screen and several radios, all of which are large power draws.

" The Tegra is a "computer on a chip" which integrates CPU, GPU, northbridge, southbridge and primary memory functionality onto a single package"

Keywords there being Single package, where as snapdragon and also the speculated Atom for the iPhone 2 are split into two "packages/Chips" (Dualcore)

Someone please correct me if i am wrong.

Taken from the linked article.........

"Tegra is different from Intel's Atom processor platform--which is offered as a processor and a separate chipset. Nvidia puts all major device functions onto one piece of silicon. This makes it more akin to Texas Instruments' OMAP processors or Qualcomm's Snapdragon."
