We shouldn't be surprised about any new technology by now. Cell phones, which used to the size of shoes, are now small enough to fit into your shirt pocket. Smart card technology will soon allow you to make purchases with wireless devices. What's next? According to Intel, in the next five to 10 years we shouldn't be surprised to see wearable computers or even video watch phones. The company just showed off an experimental computer chip at the Intel Developer Forum in Amsterdam that is based on a new technology combining the core components of today's cellular phones and handheld computers. This integrated, "wireless-Internet-on-a-chip" technology could enable a new era of wireless Internet-access products with extensive battery life and greater processing power. The chips feature logic, flash memory and analog communications circuits on a single piece of silicon built using a single manufacturing process. Intel says chips produced with the new process may be up to five times more powerful than those used in today's cell phones, capable of operating at speeds of up to 1 GHz, and providing up to a month of battery life. According to an article in today's Wall Street Journal Online , Texas Instruments is working with AMD to develop similar chips. Soon, it'll be as easy to lose your cell phone as it is to lose your car keys.
