Everyone’s heard of the Atom and its 1.6GHz worth of ubiquity providing the oomph behind many a netbook, and, while not directly targeting Intel’s frugal juggernaut, Marvell may have itself a contender with the PXA168. It’s an upcoming processor intended for mobile devices that’s aspiring to speeds in the 1GHz and beyond range. While we’re expecting it’ll be most commonly found in smartphones and the like (particularly those from Asus), there’s a chance these could show up in some low(er) cost netbooks, too, possibly helping to keep that race to the bottom going for a few more laps yet.
