You can expect every vendor building Tablet PCs will eventually offer models powered by Intel's Centrino processor. Centrino is on the product roadmap of every current Tablet PC vendor and with the benefits it delivers to mobile computing devices in terms of integrated wireless LAN connectivity, long battery life, improved overall computing performance and the potential for new form factor designs that push against the boundaries of size and weight, we expect Centrino to be the top choice for new vendors entering the tablet market. The timing of such products announcements is not information that can be publicly disclosed. Such information is closely guarded by most vendors for obvious reasons. We can say, however, that the market will see the availability of Centrino-based Tablet PCs before year-end.
