According to some reliable sources, Yahoo and Intel are working together to bring in the next version of UMPC in 2007. It will be smaller,but not faster than current UMPCs.
Intel provided a sneak peek at one of the UMPCs planned to hit the market in 2007 - a Yahoo! branded mobile device - that packs a comprehensive feature set into a small form factor. Technical details were scarce, but the presentation and hints given by senior vice president Dadi Perlmutter indicate that this will be the UMPC Microsoft and Intel should have introduced earlier this year. According to the executive, the devices will not use Core 2 Duo processor, and “consume approximately half the power of today’s CPUs with approximately one-fourth the package size.”
