I saw this at The Inquirer. I must say that Intel is really making strides in the technology field. And on that subject of radio, wasn't bluetooth supposed to come out in full force already?
Dubbed "Radio Free Silicon", the technology would drive the cost of wireless down to the point where it was essentially free, although whether the networks such devices might use are free or not is a different kettle of fish.
The silicon radio on a CPU may arrive sooner than other technologies he talked about today - earlier in the work Louis Burns said at his keynote that integrated wireless was not so far away.
Gelsinger said today: "We want to put a CMOS radio directly integrated into the core of the die." Chipsets would be developed which also included silicon radios and could access personal area networks, local area networks and wide area networks. Full story
