Don't think of mobile going forward as "embedded." The iPhone is basically a UMPC. Think about the browser as the "OS," and it gets even weirder! Hm, couldn’t find the article but it’s out there.

I was starting to put some faith in the combo of ARM with the new <a href="http://theregoesdave.com/2008/06/06/nvidia-tegra-chips-raise-the-bar-for-mobile-video/" rel="nofollow">NVIDIA Tegra</a> line for video acceleration. I guess I've just never really thought of Intel for the embedded space. Really? I was starting to put some faith in the combo of ARM with the new NVIDIA Tegra line for video acceleration.

The Atom is just a prequel of the small, light and energy-efficient chips that the x86 guys can come up with. Plus, moving to the x86 infrastructure would enable mobile devices to utilize PC-like graphics capabilities. I've got an article shared somewhere on my Friendfeed from way back that talks more about this, I'll see if I can dig it up.
