With 40% of the US client PC shipments in Q1 on non-MSFT OSes, that has some implications for the future.

Many we spoke with implied that they either know or have heard about several big players--in addition to niche startups like Achronix--already using Intel as their foundry. Asked who are those big players, they all demurred. Of course, Intel isn't talking.

When I spoke with NXP Semiconductors CEO Rick Clemmer last week, I asked him the same question—who are the so-called "big players" already using Intel as their foundry? "I've heard of that, too," replied Clemmer. "But I can tell you it's not NXP."

I think one of the biggest CEO screwups of the last 2-3 decades was Intel not using their process tech to own the foundry space.

Perhaps they are finally waking up.

Oops, I should have added that 40% of client PC shipments in the US last quarter were also on non-Intel CPUs.

Intel-powered Orange Santa Clara is coming to the UK 'soon'

Pricing still to be announced

UK MOBILE OPERATOR Orange has revealed that it will be bringing the Intel-powered Santa Clara handset to the UK soon.

The operator has added a holding page for the Medfield phone on its UK web site, which tells us that a release is just around the corner. However, an Orange spokesperson told The INQUIRER that no specific release date or pricing details are available just yet, adding that even the phone's name is still to be revealed.

The Orange Santa Clara, as it is known for now, will feature Intel's 1.6GHz Atom Z2460 chip to provide the CPU power behind its oddly-sized 4.03in touchscreen. There's also support for HSPA+ connectivity, 16GB of internal storage, an 8MP HD camera and a bundle of exclusive Orange applications, including Deezer, Dailymotion and Orange Wednesday.

The only real downside is that the handset will launch running Android 2.3 Gingerbread, although Orange has already given the nod to an Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) update.

Once it arrives, the phone will be available on both Orange pay monthly and pay as you go. If the phone is cheap enough, the Santa Clara could get Intel off to a great start in the UK smartphone market. µ

Correction: Non-x86...

Err, yes, I forgot that AMD actually has a reasonable portion of the x86 PC client sockets in the USA. So factoring that in, Intel's fraction of the USA, PC client sockets is likely around 40-45%. It would be less than 50% I'm quite sure.

No wonder Intel is getting motivated in the mobile sector.
