There’s not a whole lot of detail in this article by Charlie Demerjian of the Inquirer today but it does give us a few nice hints about a MID-capable ARM platform. The CSX 600/650 platform looks like its aimed right into Atom space [I like that expression!]

A second platform, the Tegra APX 2500 looks like it’s ideal for Android Handsets.

Expect more info from us as we get it. Launch is expected on June 3rd at Computex which is the same day that many of the Intel Atom-based products will be launching.

Meh, 800MHz ARM11-based SoC… barely faster than the 624 MHz XScale. nVidia should have incorporated the Cortex-A8

APX = Arm11 , CSX = Cortex?
I’m hoping that the CSX is indeed cortex.
