Intel can say what they like. I won't be buying an Intel Turd, sorry, Atom phone anytime soon.

Intel can't do mobile CPUs. I don't see why anyone should give a damn what they think.

Too dear for no appreciable benefit over what's currently available.

Or in other words '16 MP crammed onto a tiny sensor, resulting in pictures with more noise than a motorhead concert'.

I don't care how many megapixels phone cameras have, they're still [LIFTED]. They all blur really easily and are terrible in the dark. I'd rather have a good 4mp camera than a rubbish 16mp one.

Know why Android tablets are doing as well as the phones?
That aspect ratio is terrible.

It's quite different to what we are used to from an Intel atom. Apparently, it kicks butt.

Can it read the text right at the binding? That's always a struggle.
