Intel Atom based cellphones to be launched soon

If things go well for Intel, we may soon see cellphones with Atom processors. The Intel Atom processor is being made using the 32nm process technology and would be cheaper. The 32nm technology is based on the x86 micro-architecture and would have the support of most previous Intel based technologies. The Intel Atom has the full power of the Intel ecosystem behind it and negotiations are already underway. We may expect to see an Apple iPhone with Intel Atom as early as in 2009 or 2010. Both Intel and AMD have been trying to enter the mobile world as well.
