it does NOT mean ppc iPhones. PA Semi's TDP is something like 25W on their 2Ghz chip. not to mention that to use such a thing, apple would have to design a complete phone platform (excluding maybe the baseband). every other phone (including the current iPhone uses so-called 'system on a chip' or SoC designs.

 

i have to say im at a loss as to what it IS going to be for though... intriguing and puzzling.

These chips run at about 10 to 15 watts from what I remember reading. Which is pretty incredible, with such a high clock for a low watt rating. I can't see this in any current iphone, maybe in the future if they don't go with Intel Atom at all. I can however see some other portable platform.

Interesting.

If I would be Apple these would be perfect to put in AppleTV, maybe make MacPOS terminals, and other smaller devices.
