"Intel has revealed the launch specs for the first-ever line of x86 products that contain both a GPU and CPU on the same die. Pine Trail, the next-generation Atom platform, will pave the way for future integrated CPU/GPU parts from both Intel and AMD."

the only reason i am excited about this at all is that these chips are good for embeded purposes and I am looking forward to having board support pachages for QNX. that aside I will be sticking with ION based deveices for small form factor products. this things doesnt even support direct x10 (to the best of my knowledge).

I hope that QNX - x86 was given for free for non-commercial purposes since they will support the chipset. (I asked for a hobbyist licence and they never answered back). On the other hand, count me in for 510.

its free for non commercial use. http://www.qnx.com/products/evaluation/
download the lite version, if you want it to be self hosting.

Any body remember MediaGX chip, which integrate not only video ut sound also into the CPU? I think that will be the first ever x86 chip that have video. ^_^

I never heard of it, though it sounds a very-very-very wise and cross-OS solution. I wish we have such chipsets with standardized exposed GFX API.

Does this use the GMA 500 / Poulsbo? I really hope it doesn't... The GMA 500 is definitely more efficient that Intel's own GPUs, but there basically is no working Linux driver. They are working on a new one, but it is closed source. I wouldn't really mind that much, but I'm planning on getting a netbook eventually, and I would really like to try using Wayland on it, which will definitely not work with a closed source driver.
So, what GPU does this chip have?
