Nvidia, a strong graphic cards manufacturer, wants to get a foothold in the mobile processors market with their new APX 2500 series, presented at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. The company created the AMD11 750MHz chip with ultra-low power GeForce core, providing advanced graphic capabilities and 3D GUI rendering support. This top-notch features enabling to display up to SXGA resolution (1280 x 1024) and to embed 12MP camera sensors in cellphones, which means there’s aplenty to aspire for. The APX 2500 will be able to pack 7.2 Mbps HSDPA, quad-band GSM, WiFi, Bluetooth, composite/S-Video outputs and even HDMI. The chip is capable of running 720p HD video, smoothly, even when playing on a 60-inch LCD TV. To demonstrate this impressive capableness, Nvidia has created a reference design prototype, running a Windows CE OS and equipped with an accelerometer. The device can play more than 10 hours of HD video and a GUI coded in OpenGL ES 2.0. The chip is expected to go on full production between Q2 - Q3, and we say - WOW !!

RIM has just released a wireless stereo transmitter, for music home streaming, from your BlackBerry device. To do so, connect your phone, via Bluetooth, to the base and connect your speakers into the 3.5mm jack, to start streaming stereo music with the A2DP configuration. The unit is available for $80 and it seems the remote gateway can stream music to other Bluetooth devices like headphones or mini-stereo systems with Bluetooth support. I wonder if RIM is trying to get a foothold in the multimedia and home entertainment categories, lets wait and see.
