Intel wireless plans begin with new chip - Michael Kanellos, CNET News.com
Intel is betting that wireless technology will be the biggest thing since the browser, and new notebooks coming Wednesday will be an early indication of whether the company is right. Intel Chief Executive Craig Barrett, Dell Computer CEO Michael Dell, and a host of PC companies will be on hand in New York for the release of Centrino, a collection of chips from Intel designed to transform laptops and tablet PCs into portable offices. Centrino computers, with a $1,500 starting price, will run between five and eight hours on a battery charge, the sort of energy efficiency required to make wireless Net access a habit.
