"The Internet Everywhere" is ARM's slogan for its latest low-power processor, the 45nm Cortex A5 MPCore, which is aimed at smartphones and MIDS and other such mobile devices, and is available with up to four cores.

Few details are available, writes our Technology Editor, Steve Bush, but the processor includes the firm's TrustZone security block and its 128-bit SIMD Neon multimedia engine, first introduced with the Cortex-A8.

Along with the core, ARM had released a physical IP package for 40nm chips, including low-leakage, said the firm, logic libraries optimised for TSMC's 40LP process.

The core is compatible with existing Cortex-A tools and software, said ARM, including Android, Adobe Flash, Java Platform Standard Edition (Java SE), JavaFX, Linux, Microsoft Windows Embedded, Symbian and Ubuntu.

An IFA story. The Samsung N510 features Nvidia's Ion graphics processor, reports the Register (also pointing out that the machine has been available to buy in Europe for a week or so).

The N510 also sports an 11.6in, 1366 x 768 display, which will surely appeal to folk who find the netbook-standard 1024 x 600 too cramped.

Nvidia's Ion chipset pairs with Intel's Atom processor - in the N510's case the 1.67GHz N280. The mini-laptop also features Bluetooth, 802.11n Wi-Fi, a 160GB Sata hard drive and 1GB of DDR 2 memory.
