  1. Intel indicates that it has canceled the first Larrabee products but is committed to the develop efforts for the future.
  2. Intel kills Larrabee (GPU), but continues push into parallel processing. Will Intel be competitive with integrated graphics?
  3. EU releases a 500-page report on Intel investigation - http://bit.ly/Hfj0u
  4. New FCC net neutrality proposal includes mobile devices. With 3G networks, this could cause more problems then benefits. We need 4G, quick!
  5. Intel IDF kicks off tomorrow in SF. Look for more updates on what Intel does and does not say. Not expecting surprises, but you never know
  6. Google announces Chrome OS in 2H10, Linux based, aimed at on-line apps though a browser. Interesting news as the software war heats up.
  7. Best Buy & Sprint offer HP Mini for 99 cents with data plan, but the plans ($60/month) are too expensive and the data cap (5GB) is too low!
  8. According to our sources, the rumor that Apple dumped NVIDIA is apparently false. Like many articles on-line articles, look for proof.
  9. Industry Outlook - Earnings season starts this week so look for more details on the state of the industry. Intel releases on 7/14.
  10. Semi industry finds its footing with 3rd sequential increase in May. Still far below 2008 levels, but a positive sign for 2H.
  11. Webinar - See the latest mobile technology webinar on mobile processor architectures at http://events.variview.net/clients/ti/20090624/
  12. After a few weeks of travel and computer problems, I'm back.
  13. Intel & Nokia announce strategic relationship, Intel gets HSPA license and they will work on "new" mobile form factors - no specifics
  14. Industry Update: Most fabs are running again, but with low inventory levels, this looks like little more than a false start - advise caution
  15. Much hype about the end of Moore's Law, again. The industry overcomes obstacles and changes with new cost structures, so don't believe it.
  16. Intel Update - Intel drops the Centrino brand and continues its focus on processor brands - Core, Atom, Pentium & Celeron - as expected
  17. Qualcomm Update: Analyst conference under NDA, but most of the information is already public - FLO goes so Q can focus on technology
  18. Article - What Bing means to Microsoft and the battle with Google. http://bit.ly/sDreL
  19. Econ Update - Public fear has subsided & decline has decelerated, but its still declining. Be cautious until things actually improve
  20. As WSJ reported, tech acquisitions are increasing again, but many good small/mid-size companies will be screwed up in the process - as usual
