RSSNvidia Builds 3D Chip for Cell Phones
By the Betanews Staff | Published February 13, 2006, 3:00 PM
Nvidia unveiled a new graphics processor Monday, adding to its GoForce lineup of GPUs. But the GoForce 5500 is not targeted at larger handheld gaming devices; instead, it has been designed as the first true 3D chip for mobile phones. It promises to support digital TV, surround sound and console-class graphics.
The GoForce 5500 enables viewing of H.264, WMV9 and MPEG-4 videos at a full 30 frames per second. It is also compatible with mobile TV standards including DVB-H, ISDB-T, and DMB. The chip additionally supports taking photos with up to a 10-megapixel resolution. The first phones with the 5500 GPU are expected to ship in time for the 2006 holiday season.

In a related story, the first game to take advantage of the new chip will be Battery 911 where you must seek out a shrieking, smoldering power supply in an effort to keep it cool with buckets of water you find hidden in the maze.

So, when you're playing DOOM III on your cellphone, and your hand starts to hurt...
Is it cramping, or burning?
"Don't mind the smell, I'm playing DOOM...and my phone searing the flesh from my hand."

Joypads on a phone would look so ridiculous. Just appendages everywhere. Everywhere. You'd mistake it for a land mine.

And, yes, your "more pr0n" theory will indeed succeed and profusely expand.
