The Mobile market is booming and the processors for mobile devices are primarily dominated by ARM. So much so that Microsoft which has only supported the x86 architecture has added ARM support to Windows 8.Intel has now planned to offer support for Android 2.3 Gingerbread on it's ATOM (E6XX) Series of chips in an attempt to win over manufacturers to it's own mobile CPU offering by January 2012.
With Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich being released by the end of this year, one may wonder if it is a little too late as newer devices in 2012 will come with ICS. Intel is trying hard to play a huge catch up game with hopes of dominating the entire processor market once again.
