Now can it do basic UI animations without lag? Single core performance seemed to be the bottleneck there.

A smaller screen and a year and a half old SoC make for a cheap device to make? I'm shocked. SHOCKED.

Funny how they touted resolution over screen area for so long, then turned around just for their Nexus 7 comparison and touted the Minis screen area. They're having it both ways, and most people will take what they said in stride.

Intel has a quad core mobile Ivy Bridge processor with the same TDP as the MBP 13 uses, I hope the Retina version gets that. Also the concern about Intel-only graphics is valid, on the 15" there is a very jarring lag with some UI...

Lots of things make me doubt this happening in the next decade. The investment it would take to build a high performance chip like Intels would make the A6 seem tiny, desktop and laptop chips are still over an order of magnitude ahead of...

Didn't the old connectors start using chips like these too? Really the only question is, is it the same chip? I remember they started doing that and old cables wouldn't work with new iPods then.
