NVIDIA announces Tegra 2, tablets en route {Engadget}

Jan 7th 2010 1:51PM @TT Nope, they are using ARM11 MPCore (probably dual core) running at 650 and 750 MHz for the two versions.

Claims 1080p H264 decode, but that might as well be just baseline like the 1st Gen Tegra (which might as well be not present at all, IMHO). We need at least Main profile, if not High Profile, for this to work with most videos out there.

Btw, the least Engadget could have done is to visit the above page and put the specs in the post.

We still aren't quite sold on the way this camera (like most of these compacts) processes video -- it seems to do a lot of damage to frame-to-frame motion, something that Apple fought off pretty well with the iPhone 3GS --

I am not sure why everything that Apple seems to be doing needs to be the best in this particular area (which Apple has never been a major player in). The dominant marketshare in this segment belongs to the Flip. You will be better off comparing this with the Flip.

By the way, I am not sure what damage you are referring to in the frame-to-frame motion. I have personally experienced none. Of course, if you playback on a CPU and it isn't powerful enough to decode the H264 stream, things look jerky indeed! Have you tried connecting the device to a HDTV directly and viewing the results? Do you still see the same frame-to-frame motion damage?

Jul 29th 2009 7:14PM Flips can't go anywhere near the 1080p resolution without burning themselves out ( which is the reason why they restrict themselves to 720p :) )
