 Now this is starting to look more like Star Trek everyday.

The “Moorestown” processor was revealed, not realistically about to hit the market until 2009 or 2010, Intel described this as the chip the iPhone would have wanted.

With 45nm processor and integrating a memory controller, video encode/decode engine and graphics all on a single chip it will allow concept products like the device shown, to become a reality.

A super-slim UMPC with phone capablities, this touchscreen device, apparently a deliberate homage to Apple, could run for 24 hours between charges.

    The MID isn't a tribute to the iphone, the iphone is a tribute to Intel/Microsofts vision of the UMPC, check out this video from over a year ago http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HrzeiUvDZog
    Yes Apple with their iphone are the first to come to market w/ the device, but some credit where its due.
