Everyone,

It looks like OQO will have Nvidia Tegra GPU chip integrated. The chip capable of playing Quake3 at 35 fps. The handtop gaming I've been waiting for.

That is great! That will take a load off of the CPU too. Now if OQO can only integrate a camera (or two) into the unit...it would be very nice.
 

I doubt the OQO will have the Tegra, it's not really aimed at the OQO so I am not sure why they are using OQO pictures.

Unless of course they plan to purely use the GPU part of the Tegra but that would be a waste since the Tegra is an entire SOC I believe (System On Chip).

It's more aimed at technically PDA devices which will bring it even closer to UMPC's.

No, I'd honestly expect to see the Model 02+ update to contain the new VIA Nano since it is a *direct* drop in, no redesign is needed, nothing. Cheap upgrade for OQO! Potentially they will save it for the Model 03 if they haven't already started Intel Atom plans or aren't overly impressed with what Intel can offer them with the Atom in performance/price/physical design wise.
 

I think you might be wrong LondonBenji, although you don't sound wrong.

Nvidia can't use a picture of an oqo and state it as a product utilizing the their technology unless OQO allows it. And if OQO allows it, then it makes sense that they will be getting some form of the technology in their lineup.

I don't care what they use as long as the OQO get's some much needed GPU support!

Sign me UP!

That is exactly the only thing from making me think I was wrong

Does it necessarily have to be using the Tegra though or could it be ANY of NVIDIA's technology since I read something about NVidia and VIA doing a bit of a partnership on some stuff..... VIA Nano proc and some low end NVidia discrete graphics maybe for the OQO?
 

ooooo, things get a little more interesting.....just looked back at that site linked above and the OQO is no longer the 'show piece', it seems to have changed unless it is a random imagine thing.

If it wasn't meant to be there I guess it doesn't have Tegra which IMO is a good thing, but it doesn't make me stop wondering if someone has let the cat out of the bag a little with NVidia's interest in the OQO......
