Aasemoon =) on 10 Jan 10"LAS VEGAS- Nvidia declared that 2010 is the year of the tablet at its CES2010 press conference, and went on to launch its latest Tegra 2 platform, running on a slew of them. The company wanted these tablets to have the performance of a PC, but have the energy efficiency of a cell phone. This is where the next generation of Nvidia's Tegra 2 comes in. It features a dual-core Cortex A9 processor-part of its eight independent processors, which also include a Geforce GPU. Nvidia claims Tegra 2 will have 10 times the performance of a smartphone, operating at only 500 milliwatts. So battery life will be far better than products based on Qualcomm's Snapdragon or Intel's Atom chips, according to Nvidia. "
