Notebook buyers looking ahead to 2002 can expect better processors, cooler graphics, built-in wireless connectivity, and a few radical new designs. Processors are always a hot topic with buyers. The talk at Comdex is that those buyers should be pleased next year, with all three major chip vendors preparing new products.
Of particular interest from Intel: the transition from mobile Pentium III M to the mobile Pentium 4 chip, expected sometime in the first half of next year. In addition to the new chip, which will launch at 1.5 GHz, Intel's supporting 845MP chip set will support DDR memory, too.
