Nvidia Tegra: HD streaming and Flash support demonstrated by Gordon Grigor

An amazing demonstration by Gordon Grigor Director og Mobile Software at Nvidia (the software engineering lead in developing Tegra solution!) of the ways Nvidia accelerates web browsing, flash, HD video decoding, HD video streaming from the Internet and more.

I was very impressed today I interviewing the Nvidia executives and engineers, they are insanely confident about their Tegra ARM implementation, even though the current demonstrations of the Tegra technology does NOT use the latest ARM Cortex processor which is 4x faster for things like a browser compared to ARM11!!!! Nvidia is processing many things from the browser using the GPU! Can you believe that? Rendering of browser contents, scrolling, font antialiasing, image rendering, flash animations, flash videos, all are taken care of by the Nvidia GPU! Look for my videos of all that, being uploaded now and filming more the next couple or three of days.

@ charbax

could you give us your opinion on 3d performances between tegra and all their other competitors please ?

[Charbax]

I don't know which 3D is best, but the others also have 3D built-in..

[boneimre]

That is actually amazing.

This would make an AMAZING media player-come-NAS-server box. Instead of the usual Buffalo Linkstation/Qnap boxes you could also have a media player built in. Leave the box on all day as a web server, download box and media player and all using very little power. ARM CPU is enough for all those tasks

WOAH get that coke can away from this beautiful technology!!!! lol

@Methanoid

look and boxee it has a tegra 2 inside

[wangtheory]

GPU and CPU speeds on this are BOMB

[ooHARDWAREoo]

omg 150$ for a netbook? look at wot the price of them are now lol. but this isnt a netbook? if it is as cheap as they say then id buy one for each room and get my home wired for hdstreams lol

i wish windows makes more use of our GPU :( it would makes life a little bit easier.

Microsoft - Intel friendship is not a good thing for us

What OS is running on this notebook?
