Intel's Atom To Ship In Over 35 Tablets Next Year

nateman1352 writes with a bit from TechSpot: "Intel has been trying to cut itself a slice of the mobile market for years, and it seems the company is finally making some headway. During a conference yesterday, Intel CEO Paul Otellini revealed that the company's Atom platform will ship in over 35 tablets starting early next year. The chipmaker has partnered with more than a dozen manufacturers who will launch slates running Windows [or] Android as well as Intel's own MeeGo operating system." The article lists Toshiba, Dell, Fujitsu, Lenovo, Asus, AT&T, Cisco, and Acer as developing Atom-based tablets.

    Galaxy S = Samsung Flagship - manufactured by Samsung for Samsung. This phone runs the Samsung proprietary RFS filesystem, uses Samsungs TouchWiz interface and is poorly supported by Samsung. Google has nothing to say about it.

    Nexus S = Google Flagship - manufactured by Samsung for Google. This phone runs on EXT4 filesystem, uses stock Android with some device specific drivers and will be well supported by Google (if the Nexus One is any indication). Samsung has nothing to say about it.
