The GPU maker giant Nvidia is stepping into the mobile market in a whole new way that may give ARM and Intel a run for their money next year.

Nvidia Tegra

Slow news day today as everyone may already gather, but that ain't stopping me from scouring the web for something worthwhile to drop off. So what is good about this bit of news? Well it's only Nvidia's new Tegra CPU which has been flying around the web for some time now, only this time I'm hearing it could finally be announced next year February at the GSMA Mobile World Congress.

The Tegra is supposed to be a CPU built on top of a GPU so it is not quite sure as yet how much performance in the real world this baby will spit out. At the moment I understand that the Tegra will feature first on a Windows mobile device next year, I'm thinking it will be Windows Mobile 6.5 or higher.65nm single-core processor, which can run at 750MHz is the specs known right now about the Tegra but expect its first outing to be lesser than 750MHz, I'm guessing basically 500+MHz the highest. Nvidia's Tegra is expected to be launched in the Spring of 2009 along with Windows Mobile 7 so it's safe to say something is brewing with Microsoft and Nvidia here.

What the heck, as long as it performs accordingly then I and every othwr future Windows Mobile 7 user will be one happy Windows family.
