| Besides the low-cost, ultra-portable devices Intel's Atoms, the 45nm CPUs dubbed Diamondville will also be included in new, low-power desktops and those specific platforms are codenamed Little Falls and Little Falls 2, the latter including the dual-core version of Diamondville. Coming in a mini-TTX form factor the Little Falls platforms are equipped with the 945 GC northbridge and ICH7 southbridge, have one DDR2 memory slot, up to four USB ports and integrated LAN. Set to fight off VIA's own low-power C7 platforms, Little Falls, which will arrive with a Diamondville processor clocked at 1.86 GHz, is expected to arrive in actual devices as soon as Q3 while LF2, with the dual-core version of the CPU mentioned will be put into PCs in Q3. The notebook-friendly Centrino Atoms will come in late Q2. |
