Any news on future release of OS4 netbook or on Natami?

+1 to this. Finished hardware projects are rare enough in this community, the last thing we'd need is for perfectly good time and effort to go into something so useless.

Minds like you is what ruined commodore, a tablet will be sold in more units than any computer even if it is driven by a exoticOS (= AmigaOS)

I would like a TABLET with AMIGA X1000 technologies inside! Is it possible? :biglaugh:

Why not? PWRficient and Xmos are low power chips, xmos is used in a few expansions gadgets for the iphone. So you say it as a joke but technically is not impossible, economically? unless you are Microsoft or Apple the only 2 companies captable of spend millions for create a need for a solution that have not a problem then no

It was very low power in it's day but tablets are something else altogether.  They require much lower power and PWRficient is well above that level.

It could probably be done but you'd have to reduce the frequency by a hefty margin and cut the memory speed right down.  You'd probably still need a big battery and a fan though.

The processors on the Sam boards are much more suitable for tablets.

Of course for tablet usage you have to reduce the frequency but at 1 or 1,2 GHZ surely is enough faster to compete to ARM and equal in power consumption, after all the Apple ARM chips have Pa Semi technology in it
