Plenty of companies have thrown their proverbial hat into the convergence ring, but as the 800 lb. gorilla in the room, all eyes tend to gravitate towards Intel for trend-setting processor news. And who is Intel to disappoint? The company's already announced plans for a mobile SoC with built-in 4G, and it recently showed off new "Rosepoint" chips that combine Atom CPUs and Wi-Fi radios.

    Thanks Brink. Run a computer from the light of a desk lamp. That's great. I want one. Technology always moves forward and I like it that way.

    I can see a solar powered super smart phone that will WIFI dock to your tablet sized portable screen and/or home monitor and keyboard, in ~10 years.
    Legacy components formally known as data storage, RAM and CPU will be on one small chip.

Does such a thing exist? I sometimes find I need my external drive for like 5 minutes on the road without a socket in sight so it'd be great if I could just have it suck power from my computers USB port. Or even solar power. Obviously I wouldn't power something for a long time with it. ...
