I do like the name - no it isn't great, but it still a very good pick for Intel.
I'd be interested in one for an Eee class notebook but only if it has HT.

Forget UMPC's, these things need to go into small laptops like the Eee or the Cloudbook and get cheaper laptops out to the masses.

Nice to see more energy saving equipment coming out. GeForce 9600, Atom, finally someone does something about those 900W power issues.

I think we've reached the point where the number of cores in any new CPU needs to be mentioned, even if it's just one. Atom is single-core only, right? No dual/quad variants?
