Intel has launched its first

Intel has launched its first XScale chips, which will take PDAs from the 206MHz of today's PocketPCs (and some of next year's Palms) to 400MHz. Intel's XScale is a development of what was Digital's StrongARM, which was a development of the Advanced Risc Machine (ARM) processor in the Apple Newton, which came from the Acorn Risc Machine (ARM) in the Acorn Archimedes, developed in Cambridge, England, in the 1980s. Update: AP has also run the story.
