Intel is trying to get its x86 processors into the mobile market. The company claims Moorestown equals ARM on standby power, and promises that the next-generation Medfield chip will offer equal active power consumption as ARM-based chips:
"With (our) Moorestown processor we equal them on standby power, in the next generation Medfield we will equal them on active power," Justin Rattner, Intel's Chief Technology Officer, told Reuters in an interview.
"I expect us to just pull away after that because we have a fundamental technology advantage, which they don't have," he said in an interview on the sidelines of a news conference opening Intel's joint research centre with Nokia (NOK1V.HE) in Northern Finland.
