Currently, mobile phones and other handheld devices are powered with parts that take low voltages to run, and are usually pretty efficient. The problem with this however is that performance is usually not on par with what some users expect of their electronic devices. Intel plans to change this in the future though, with the company talking about bringing its Atom chips to mobile handheld phones. The Atom processor, as of now, is found mainly in netbooks, but will possibly be making its way to cell phones within the next two years. Experts are worried about the battery consumption of the processor however, but in two years, Intel should be able to figure out a way to make their Atom chip use even less power than it does now.
