AMD Shrinks XENOS

Announced at the recently-concluded GDC, I almost missed this nugget.

AMD has succeeded in shrinking the XENOS GPU to allow for installations in mobile devices, aka cellphones.

Are you freakin' kiddin'?

The XENOS is the DirectX-10, unified memory graphics processor powering the Xbox 360. Yes, that XENOS processor.

Maybe, just maybe, TV, video, and gaming on mobiles might have a future!
