Otellini said that Intel, long the heavyweight in processors for PCs, will move its "center" from the power range measured in wattage of mainstream laptops to small mobile devices like ultraportable laptops, smartphones, and tablets, as well as devices such as smart TVs.
"We're shifting from 35-watt to 15-watt...the center is increasingly about ultramobility," said Otellini. "Every device has to be always on and always connected," he said. Today, a device with a 15-watt
processor is typically an ultrathin laptop like the MacBook Air.
"No big announcement from Intel on smartphones today," he said. "Phones in first part of next year, an area of intense focus for us." Those phones will be based Intel's "Medfield" Atom processor.
