It would be perfect for HTPC :-
- very small and low heat means very little cooling and a quiet fan
- 18W TDP - very low power
- the gpu does 1080p, is an extremely fast DX11 part, and can play games (!), and accelerate flash/html5/other apps (using OpenCL). AMD IGP's are much better than Intel's anemic offerings
- since its AMD, will be a performance bargain
- likely work with older hardware (socket and memory details unknown)
- better than Sandy Bridge for a lower price
- aimed at notebook/netbook market
- shipping Q4 2010
If it ships on time, I'm really looking forward to some Christmas deals!
