Intel may deliver WiMax technology more quickly to mobile users by including it as an option for ultramobile devices based on the company&#39;s Menlow platform, according to an Intel executive.Intel&#39;s integration of WiMax technology will come in notebooks based on the company&#39;s Montevina platform, an upgrade to the mobile Centrino platform, due out in the second half of 2008. However, it is possible that Intel will also deliver WiMax technology to ultraportables and mobile Internet devices based on the Menlow platform sometime in 2008, said Mooly Eden, vice president and general manager, Intel Mobile Platforms Group.Intel is already developing a WiMax silicon chip codenamed Baxter Peak for mobile devices. Last year, Nokia said it would use Baxter Peak on its WiMax-enabled N-series Internet tablets, expected to ship in 2008.&quot;Baxter Peak is not a &#39;required&#39; part of the Menlow platform,&quot; said Kari Aakre, an Intel spokeswoman. It will be an option similar to how Echo Peak is an option for Centrino notebooks based on the Montevina mobile platform, Aakre said. Echo Peak is a minicard that integrates WiMax and Wi-Fi technology on one chip.The Menlow platform is a set of components, including the low-power Silverthorne processor and Poulsbo chipset, that run ultramobile devices. Intel didn&#39;t release further details on the platform.Adoption of WiMax is expected to take off in 2009, and Intel wants to deliver WiMax clients quicker to boost adoption of the technology, Eden said. Intel is trying to move in parallel with wireless carriers, which expect WiMax-enabled mobile devices to hit the market as the networks are established.&quot;When you&#39;re trying to create a market, you always start at the infant stages,&quot; Eden said.Intel is already testing WiMax, including in Japan and Russia.&#160;A consortium including Intel and Japanese telecom company KDDI will receive one of two WiMax licenses to be awarded by the Japanese government. Intel is assisting Russian company Comstar UTS in building a nationwide WiMax-based network.Menlow-based devices will ship in the first half of 2008. Intel also said that it will display ultramobile PCs based on Menlow architecture from vendors including Asus, BenQ, and Lenovo at the Consumer Electronics Show at Las Vegas this week. The Menlow platform,&#160;announced at the Intel Developer Forum in Beijing in April, will be followed in 2009 by the Moorestown platform, which Intel detailed in September.The company is also developing Diamondville, an ultramobile processor bearing features similar to the Silverthorne processor.Though WiMax has availability and power consumption issues, Intel is trying to get carriers building networks to establish WiMax as a standard, said Dean McCarron, founder and principal at analyst firm Mercury Research.&quot;Intel wants to make sure that there is a readily available platform that can use WiMax and that it&#39;s worth the while of wireless providers to support WiMax,&quot; McCarron said.If Intel can tackle the power-consumption issues and provide wide-area network access through its products, adoption of the technology may increase, McCarron said.

Intel says it has completed the design of its first mobile WiMax chip, which it hopes will begin appearing in notebooks as early as 2008. Notably, the chipmaker said it plans to integrate that chip with Wi-Fi to create a chipset it calls WiMax Connection 2300.

(InfoWorld) - Intel's venture-capital arm has taken an unspecified stake in ADA Cellworks, a Malaysian company that provides radio network planning services. Intel's investment in the company is intended to smooth the adoption of WiMax technology. ADA Cellworks has helped operators roll out GSM and WCDMA cellular networks in countries around the world. It plans to use the funding from Intel to expand into planning services for WiMax networks. WiMax offers the promise of high-speed connections over a greater area than is possible with wireless LAN technology. Fixed-wireless and mobile versions of the technology are being developed, with the fixed-wireless version seen as a replacement for wired broadband connections, such as cable and DSL (digital subscriber line). Intel has invested heavily in the technology, developing WiMax chip sets and planning to add WiMax support to future laptops. Intel Capital did not disclose the size of the investment in ADA Cellworks, but the company typically invests up to $5 million when taking a stake in a private company. However, in some cases the company has invested much more. In July, Intel took aÂ $600 million stake in Clearwire, a broadband wireless provider that provides services in the U.S., Ireland, Denmark, Belgium, and Mexico.ADVERTISEMENTMAKE SOA REAL WITH IBM WEBSPHERE PODCASTStreamline processes and maximize efficiency within a proven service oriented architecture.
