I guess the fact that VIA is about to have a powerful processor for UMCP that averages less than 15w TODAY is of no interest to you? And just to mention that Intel has NO PRODUCT currently in production in this category is another thing worth pointing out.

The Nano is an excellent choice for netbooks. 64 bit, out of order processing, low TDP etc. Why do you think Samsung have based the NC20 around a Via Nano part.

This chip will finally push competitors to make more energy efficient CPUs, which in effect, produce longer battery time. I personally am looking forward to getting the Everex Cloudbook :)

OMG Intel's Silverthorn can play crisis!!!

This video doesn't do a good job of explaining why I should care if Intel's mobile/desktop solutions aren't drop-in compatible with their ultra-mobile designs. They freely admit that their CN processor doesn't compete in performance with those chips so the advantage is academic at best. Intel's 22mm FC-BGA Penryns come in <25W TDP flavors as well...
