ARM Launches Cortex A5 Processor For Cheaper Smartphones, Smartbooks

Our Comments

The A5 will be available in two version, a low power version running at 600MHz and a faster one clocked at 1GHz which will consume 80mW. Add in the fact that you can combine four physical cores together and you have a pretty powerful solution. Unfortunately, products based on the Cortex A5 won't appear before 2011.
