XScale is in their roadmap a sunk cost... and they will continue to woo device makers with x86-based Windows Mobile.  Microsoft will probably enter the folly with Rosetta-like RISC-to-x86 translators to make the transition easy as well.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Christopher Price]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 7th 2006 1:02AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Intel's XScale unit on the auction block?]]></title><link>http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/06/07/intels-xscale-unit-on-the-auction-block/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/06/07/intels-xscale-unit-on-the-auction-block/</guid><description><![CDATA[I'd imagine that a fair amount of that $250m revenue goes straight in royalty payments to ARM. A chip manufacturer the size of Intel, with huge R&D resources, shouldn't really be relying upon the IP of a small Cambridgeshire company spun out of the company that used to make BBC and Archimedes computers!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rich]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 7th 2006 7:16AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Intel's XScale unit on the auction block?]]></title><link>http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/06/07/intels-xscale-unit-on-the-auction-block/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/06/07/intels-xscale-unit-on-the-auction-block/</guid><description><![CDATA[AMD should buy it, and then demlish it. THeir Allchemy chip is better for mobiles. But of course, no one is using it, really.<br><br>Its to bad. THe only thing you really need an xscale for is WinMO devices, because they suck so much CPU power - damn bloated OS. If Symbian was running on that thing, it would scream bloody murder. :)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[PEZ]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 7th 2006 8:08AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Intel's XScale unit on the auction block?]]></title><link>http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/06/07/intels-xscale-unit-on-the-auction-block/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/06/07/intels-xscale-unit-on-the-auction-block/</guid><description><![CDATA[I know some people that deliberaltly choose Xscale processors over others when buying a pocket pc, like samsung.
