An article over at The Inquirer points to a new processor in the works at Samsung that has beaten Intel to the 533Mhz speed barrier. What do you think? Would you buy a non-Intel processor for a Pocket PC? From my perspective, I don't really care who makes the chip as long as it's fast and stable. SAMSUNG is making big claims for its new mobile processor, claiming to have beaten Intel to develop what it says is the world's fastest mobile processor, with a core speed of 533MHz.The South Korean company's new ARM9-based S3C2440 is a 0.13-micron process, sporting an ARM920T core with 16 kbyte of both I and D cache, a four-channel DMA controller, an LCD DMA/controller, a camera interface, a JTAG interface and a USB controller.The chip supports Windows CE, Palm, Symbian and Linux operating systems. It also delivers support for both TFT and STN LCD displays and will be available in 300-, 400-, and 533- MHz speeds running from a 0.13-V core supply.
