Intel just won't stop releasing new chips, a fact that's evidenced by the company's latest product announcements. First up, we've got the 1.06GHz U7500 and 1.2GHz U7600 CPUs, representatives of the Core 2 Duo ULV line, which are aimed squarely at the UMPC market. While Intel has some high-tech 45nm UMPC chips in the works as well [1], these two Merom-based Core 2 Duos were likely created with the budget-minded and voltage-conscious UMPC shopper in mind. Then there's the quad-core 2.93GHz QX6800 Core 2 Extreme chip, which has the high-end gamer in its sights. If you need to have the latest, greatest and fastest chip regardless of price, this one's for you.
