WinInfo | at | by Mike
Today, Intel unveiled several new mobile processors designed to power small, high-speed laptops with long-term battery life. Its new Pentium III-M (for Mobile) and mobile Celeron chips have already shipped to PC makers, which will release new models incorporating this technology in mid-October. The chips include a new 1.2GHz Pentium III-M, which slows to 800MHz on battery power and consumes less energy than previous models; this chip will cost $800. The company also introduced an "ultra-low-voltage" 700MHz Pentium III-M and several new Low Voltage Mobile Celeron chips, including models that run at 933MHz, 900MHz, 866MHz, 800MHz, and 733MHz.
