Intel has a concept MID, based on Moorestown. It’s an ultra-thin device, with touchscreen and a better battery. The prototype was presented at the Intel Developer Forum in Taipei.

Moorestown will use a system-on-a-chip (SOC), aka the “Lincroft”, which will integrate a 45nm processor, graphics, memory controller and video encoder/decoder. The chip will conect to a “Langwell: or a southbridge I/O hub which will support various I/O ports to connect with wireless, storage and display components. There will be 3G, WiMAX, WiFi, GPS, Bluetooth and mobile TV support and probably a lot more.

The Moorsetown will arrive sometime in not so near future, 2009-2010 to be specific. So then, why not make it a phone then? It might not fit my pockets, but it could be a great phone. We’ll keep you posted on further developments
