While which chip ends up in a particular device will significantly affect its performance and access to future upgrades, it’s not often that we get to peek behind the curtain and find out why those decisions were made. A post on Notion Ink’s new Adam II development blog adds some transparency to the process, discussing the switch from an NVIDIA Tegra chip in its first Adam slate to a TI OMAP solution in the just announced tablet. According to the blog, while theoretical performance marks are nice, the company decided its expertise and that of available programmers would let it squeeze the most out of a Texas Instruments chip, as opposed to its first effort that didn’t “fully utilize” the power of Tegra. Hit the source link for more details and a breakdown of some of the tech packed into the OMAP4 CPU, and keep an eye on the blog for more details in the run up to the Adam II’s release.Notion Ink explains OMAP over Tegra decision for the Adam II originally appeared on Engadget on Sun, 29 Jan 2012 19:16:00 EDT.
