Nvidia has unveiled and new chipset. And its first production use is gonna be in a cell phone, or MID.
Watch the vid. Also you can search because there are other vids available. Other vids showing different GUI's.
But this thing is pretty fucking sweet.
720p
HDMI output
Very low power consumption, i.e. it wont go dead in an hour if your playing with it. Like an iPhone will.
More processing power than iPhone. I dont remember exactly but i think its processor is 30% faster than iphone.
Open source. No apple bullshit. Full compatibility with windows and android. And apps do not have to be 1st party approved.
Plays any video formats that windows plays.
IDK about the camera. I think teh production spec camera coming out this year is supposed to be 5 mega pixel. Which isnt the best for a phone, but considering its other capabilities, but 5 megapixel is pretty high up there for a phone.
Nvidia says the phone will be $99 dollars. However once they get in bed with cellular hardware and service providers the price may go up. Because Verizon isnt gonna sell the phone for a hundred bucks if they know it will sell for 300+. However this technology is Nvidia's so they may well require that price, hopefully. But odds are they will be influenced by cellular greed.

You cannot kill the Iphone. Its game applications are slowly but surely even creeping on the gaming market. They will eventually overtake sony and maybe even nintendo handhelds if they keep this pace. Apple is a great company dude. No chance.

Yea the iPhone is pretty much unstoppable. It's built up such a large amount of hype just because of it's innovative multi touch screen which is superior to other touch screens used in mobile phones and the advertisements Apple runs all the time. The fact that alot of people want to own it and the people who own them love them help increase its popularity aswell. In the end it doesn't matter if Nvidia's product is more technological advanced, the iPhone has become sort of a "Wii" of the mobile phones beating out phones with more features. Except unlike the Wii it actually has some great stuff to offer.

No its way more than just more technologically advanced. Its cheaper. Nvidia wants you to experience their product. Apple wants your money.
This thing is way more compatible. More advanced. Better video. 10x the battery life. HDMI output(are you fucking crazy, that is fucking awesome). It will read more formats and be fully compatible with pc's. And to just put the cherry on it. Its cheaper. Ive seen the iphone and played around with it. Yea its cool. But this is just fucking FTMFW. This shit is gonna spread like wildfire. And its gonna be so much better than iphone. I was gonna buy an iphone. Im glad i waited.
I didnt know about Nvidia. But i did wait because i knew apple were profit mongers and that they had more advanced technology right from the beginning. That they wanted to give in stages in order to maximize profits.
Nvidia is not doing that. And offering a better product.
We dont know who will produce the phones or who the SP will be. I think they are thinking this phone will be the first 4g phone once the 4g networks go up. And if im not mistaken the first 4g network will be verizon. So i expect to see verizon to be the first SP. However that is a hope too. Because verizon is the best SP. But i dont know whether or not Nvidia will allow and exclusivity clause or not. Because they dont seem like the profit mongers that the rest involved do. They want this to be cheap. They say that its cheaper to produce and they are willing to pass those savings on. Rather than price the phones higher to make more profit. Like apple.
But we'll see. It all depends on a few factors. Will Nvidia cave to their demands? or will they want to have the technology so much that they will cave to Nvidia. But i think Nvidia is a good company. A company that cares more for creating and spreading new technology. Granted they will make a huge profit. But still. They want you to have this at a reasonable price. And ill gladly give them my business is my perception of them holds up when the time comes.
LOL whoa. I know one of you didnt bring up gaming? Dude this chipset is from Nvidia. Nuff said.

This is the same technology all new Nvidia graphics cards have in them and it is absolutely incredible. The iphone can never touch this product. Also the technology in the iphone was originally developed in the PS3 (sixaxis) but gamers found it to be a waste and game developers thought the same which is why PS3s no longer has sixaxis.
the n97 rapes the shit out of the iphone and the omnia

Well tegra is just a chipset. Tegra could very well end up in a apple device. But not exclusively. Tegra at some point will find its way into more devices. Just coming out in a cell phone first.
Did you even look at that phones specifications? it doesnt even compete with the n97
the n97 rapes the shit out of the iphone and the omnia
I FUCKING LOVE NOKIA
Never had a phone other than Nokia in my entire life lol
Even now that my best bud has the omnia,I'm still gonna change my crappy N70 with another better Nokia fo sho
nokia phones come with symbian too that os is great for phones much better than windows or mac

Tegra is running 750 MHz. But the main thing is. No matter how much power any other phone may have, which they still arent more powerful than tegra, tegra uses much less power than any other available chipset.
The battery will last way longer with tegra.
The thing will output 720p video for 10 hours straight. Thats pretty insane. The stand by on the phone would be days.
Its the highest definition phone screen yet. Its the only phone that outputs HDMI.
It is definately the premier technology for a phone right now. It has the highest capability and it draws much less power.

Tegra is way beyond just phones. Wait till it makes its way into computers. Imagine your lap top being able to run on its battery for longer. My lap top sucks and the batter is done. But most dont last for very long. How long does your laptop last for?
Laptops with tegra could potentially last 10 times longer.
Although i wish i could read the screen for the intel laptop. But you cant see it. I need more than just wattage. To determine how long the battery will last i need to know voltage and wattage. Which will give amperage. Just telling me watts doesnt mean shit. But if watts are lower than amps are lower. But id like to be able to know exactly. His demonstration tells me its less. But not by how much.
If the laptop is using the same 4.11 volts as the tegra it would be 2.9 amps. Where tegra is .3 amps. Thats 10x less draw. However im sure its a lil off becuase the computer is probably drawing more than 4.4 volts. My ac/dc converter on my lap top has a maximum output of 19 volts @ 3.95 amps. But the batter is 11.1 volts.
Eitehr way its gonna draw less power. But id like more precise numeration.

Dont worry Nvidia is the messiah. LOL Im actually waiting to buy a laptop for it to be a tegra laptop. 5 times the battery life with 1080p is sweet. Cant wait for the phone and the laptop.
