Intel has announced that its next generation of mobile processors dubbed as ‘Santa Rosa‘ will ship with an integrated 3G chip from Nokia and improved graphics support for Microsoft’s Windows Vista.
All the motherboards featuring Intel’s Santa Rosa technology will integrate Nokia’s High-Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) technology. Dadi Perlmutter, senior vice president and general manager for Intel’s mobility group, said:
Laptop manufacturers have been experimenting with integrated chips that can connect to mobile data networks, and Intel now plans to make Nokia’s technology part of its Centrino package of chips.
The ‘Santa Rosa’ is expected to make its debut in the Q1 of 2007.
