Intel has enjoyed strong sales with Centrino, which combines a low-wattage processor and wireless ability with an efficient chipset. Now the company will upgrade those ingredients to a more efficient version of the "Merom" Core 2 Duo chip and "Crestline" ICH8M chipset, together code-named Santa Rosa.
Santa Rosa" notebook platform will hit the streets in the first half of 2007, bringing improvements in processing power, battery life and wireless connectivity over the current Centrino architecture.
The company will also make the Santa Rosa notebooks start up faster by augmenting current memory technology with a NAND flash-based disk cache, said Intel.
