Its official: the new Montevina mobile technology from Intel will start shipping at the end of March and will be branded Centrino 2.
Right after the release of the Atom platform, Intel was quick to introduce the Core 2 Extreme QX9770 which will also be divided into 2 branding: Centrino2vPro for business portables and the Centrino 2 for consumer notebooks. The Centrino 2 is expected to provide faster performance so multitasking is a cinch, as well as higher bandwidth Wi-Fi at 802.11a/g/n. This new processor was also designed with saving power in mind so the laptop can hopefully last more than the usual 2 to 3 hours.
And since we’re slowly moving into the Blu-ray era, Centrino also offers Blu-ray disc support. It looks like the Centrino 2 production is going to offer better and faster computing since it also features WiMax wireless technology in addition to the Wi-Fi, and of course, graphics will improve by at least 300% with GMA X4500 silicon.
