LG To Deliver Moorestown-Based 3G MID
Although a Mobile Internet Device isn't technically a cellphone, we'll
let Intel and LG slide with its MID-related announcement at Mobile
World Congress. The two have come together to jointly announce a future
MID -- which we were sort of expecting -- based on Intel's next-generation MID hardware platform, codenamed
"Moorestown." In fact, LG expects the Linux-based (Moblin v2.0) device
to be one of the first Moorestown designs to market.
According to Jung Jun Lee, executive vice president of LG Electronics and head of its Mobile Communications Business Division: "The MID segment will drive growth at LG Electronics. We chose Intel's next-generation Moorestown platform and Moblin-based OS to pursue this segment because of the high performance and Internet compatibility this brings to our service provider customers. Our efforts are well on track and we look forward to bringing the MID to market."
Apparently, LG's
successful launch of an Atom-based netbook pushed to two to collaborate
further. We're told that Intel's Moorestown-based MIDs are expected to
reduce idle power consumption by a factor of greater than 10 versus
today's Intel Atom processor-based MIDs, and the Moblin v2.0 software
is designed specifically to deliver a "great PC-like Internet
experience while also supporting cellphone voice capabilities." As if
that wasn't enough, LG has also announced that it has tapped Ericsson
in order to integrate 3G WWAN into the device, though all other
specifications remain a mystery. Oh, and given that the Moorestown
platform isn't expected to hit the market until 2010, you probably
shouldn't bank on getting one of these for Christmas.
