Intel News on Ulitzer

Intel is pushing Atom out of netbooks and into embedded applications like Daimler and BMW infotainment systems, cell phones and other devices in search of what it calls a $15 billion opportunity.

It wants its OEMs and other friends to take a page out of Apple's book and create app stores for downloadable programs starting with netbook-ware. Dell, Acer and Asustek are in.

ISVs can use Microsoft's Silverlight software framework for web-based applications and its rival Adobe Air so their mobile- and small screen-optimized apps run unchanged on both Windows and Linux Moblin.

Intel is setting up an Atom Developer Program to take ISVs from application creation through testing to the go-to-market stage.

CEO Paul Otellini suggested that the classic software distribution is on its way out.
