LG to give Intel a shot at mobile

Rumoured to be lining up an Intel-powered smartphone for CES 2012.
Intel has been singularly unsuccessful at breaking into the phone space over the years, for all its dominance in the desktop market.
Instead its ARM tech that underpins most of the world's devices, with Qualcomm, Nvidia, TI and others doing the manufacturing.
However, the chip firm is driving hard into tablets and its new 'ultrabook' slimline notebook device family thanks to its Mooretown and Medfield microprocessors. And maybe it has a shot at smartphones.
The Korea Times reports that LG and Intel are set to try again after an Android smartphone running on Moorestown was scrapped last year.
The rumoured second Medfield device could be released this March.
