ha! there a surprise... of course the bbc only report an idea when big $corp also decided to do it too. hump!
though the presenters still dont get it...
i get the smartphone crowd that what to use there smartphone as a computer card. thats ok, with pass-though cards and docks, they can/could if only the smartphone software stack wasn’t full of doom. where to get new software feature, instead of sustainable apt-get upgrade, its buy another new phone.
they only slightly touched on the possibilities. intel played safe and avoided the why would the consumer want it explanation battle and just say for now its for iot.
one thing to note is the picture of the card with a credit card underneath to give instant idea of size. nice touch.
also someone thought about how hard it is to say compter card to they removed the "r" from compute(r). does make it easier to say...
sharp is a partner, does that mean a new handheld device(housing) from sharp?
