AMD to present ultra-portable strategy tomorrow at 2008 financial analyst day
By this time tomorrow, we may very well know more about what AMD’s plans are for the netbook market. An AMD spokesperson mentioned on Wednesday that “tomorrow we will discuss our plans to move into the ultraportable market and deliver new platforms aimed at the key areas driving the bulk of the mobile market expansion”. Notice that they say “ultraportable market”. It’s not entirely clear that this translates to the netbook market – but then again, AMD could be avoiding to use the “netbook” term simply because it’s a term that Intel popularized again (though they are not the originators of the term “netbook”).
Whatever the case might be, it’ll be interesting to see what AMD has in store for the ultra-portable market. As News.com points out, the company has been noticeably absent from the ultra-low voltage processor market – pretty much acquiescing this particular market to Intel’s ULV processors. Thus tomorrow could very well be the coming out party for a new AMD ULV processor OR.. it could be the unveiling of a new modified Geode processor.. OR it could be something totally new. Whatever the case might, it should be an interesting day for AMD fans.
