The Nintendo Wii may not spark an exercise fad, but, in at least one well-publicized case, it may be leading to some welcome weight loss. Also this week, we stopped by Intel, which was showing off its latest chip, Penryn. The 45 nanometer transistors on this microprocessor are being ...

This video was commissioned by Intel.

Intel announced that it will begin making 45 nanometer chips, code-named Penryn, in the second half of the year. The new microprocessors are the culmination of years of R&D using new materials to improve the efficiency and performance of silicon-based semiconductors.

The company says ...

Kelin Kuhn is the 45 nanometer device group manager. She runs one of Intel’s most important test labs where Intel figures out what needs improvement. Intel’s profitability rests on her shoulders because if a fab isn’t yielding enough good chips per wafer, Intel will make a lot less money. ...

Moore’s Law is very much alive, according to Intel Senior Fellow, Mark Bohr. He gave me a tour of Intel’s newest 45 nanometer fab. This is a very rare look inside Intel’s newest fab that’ll make processors you’ll be buying in computers later this year. In this tour you’ll ...

Sun CEO Jonathan Schwartz and Intel CEO Paul Otellini took the stage in San Francisco Monday to announce a new alliance. Listen here for the audio of the entire presentation and the Q&A session.

Intel CFO Andy Bryant says that 2006 was a year when chipmaker AMD won some marketing battles with better products. But that changed in the 4th quarter of the year when Intel was able to start applying pricing pressure to its rival. More to the point: Intel will retool ...

You might think Moore’s Law comes with an ancillary set of steps on how to adhere to it. The Law essentially says that technology develops so swiftly that chip engineers can pack twice as many transistors on a piece of silicon every two years. Performance jumps dramatically but the business ...

Intel is one of many companies attending CES 2007 in Las Vegas next week. PodTech Founder and CEO John Furrier visited with Intel’s Chief Sales and Marketing Officer, Sean Maloney to explore top tech-lifestyle trends for 2007 and the impact of new innovations coming from the chipmaker.

While at the Alternative Car & Transportation Expo, I had a chance to talk to Bryon Bliss of Phoenix Motor Cars. Their new SUT is a zero-emission, all-electric sport utility truck, powered by Altairnano NanoSafe (TM) battery technology. It has two configurations, with a range of either ...

With big iron machines it’s all about keeping costs down. As Moore’s Law is challenged by the physical constraints of designing nano-sized devices, it might be aided by more efficient software. However, software isn’t cheap. Intel Fellows David Kuck and Steve Pawlowski chatted with PodTech’s Jason Lopez about current thinking ...

SAN FRANCISCO, May 26, 2006 (Podtech News) — Nike and Apple have teamed up to give other athletic shoe companies a tuneful run for their money. The companies earlier this week jointly announced the Nike+iPod Sport Kit, a running shoe with a sensor that transmits information to your iPod Nano ...

In this PodTech. net exclusive interview, Intel scientists say they’ve completed a big step toward manufacturing the smallest and fastest chips yet. Researchers have built a working Static Random Access Memory chip using 45-nanometer process technology.

The breakthrough is expected to lead to better PCs and laptops, but it will ...

In this short podcast I’d like to thank all of the people who have downloaded and listened to PodTech.net’s infoTalk and News programs. Since the beginning, over six months ago, we’ve posted over 250 podcasts. I’d also like to thank all the guests who have been on PodTech. ...

Scott and I talk about nanotechnology and the mission of the Foresight NanoTech Institute.
