Only it’s not the Turbo Mode of the early 90s. Intel sheds new light on its Core (Nehalem) CPU, including excessive use of the word “turbo”.

Wireless broadband is getting a significant push into the homes of Australians, with the new Telstra Turbo 7 Series Wireless Gateway to offer Next-G broadband and WiFi networking.

Don't go expecting your upload speeds to go through the roof on Telstra's 21Mbps wireless broadband; they'll be more like 1Mbps for now.

Yup, we know they're expensive, but here's the thing: Telstra is doing stonkingly impressive things with their wireless, including today's announcement of 21Mbps.

Pre-paid wireless is finally clearing the way for those wanting wireless without the 24-month contract. We look at how Telstra's new plans stack up against the competition, including Optus and Virgin re-paid wireless.

This picture sums up the mini-notebook frenzy at Intel's IDF in San Francisco – we’ve never seen so many mini notebooks in one place.

It looks like a high school science project, but is actually the first step towards one day wirelessly powering your notebook or mobile phone.

It looks the Asus Eee Box isn’t the only interesting mini-desktop around. Amid the swathes of Centrino 2 and small form factor notebooks at IDF this week, we spotted this – a mini Centrino 2 desktop.

Oh, and it’s power efficient too. Follow our coverage of the next big desktop processor from the Intel Developer Forum in San Francisco.

You’ve been asking us for more info about what Intel’s new CPU will mean for those upgrading in the next 12 months. Here’s what you need to know.

We’ve just seen the demo, and frankly, we’re blown away. High resolution beach-scapes, ultra-realistic water ripples, wind blowing through the tall grass. Wait, is that...?

They’re faster than hard drives, and save battery life, but do they last? Intel says yes, and has 80GB and 160GB SSDs on the way.

Earlier today I pondered the possibility of an Intel Atom-based smartphone. It looks like I wasn’t far off - Intel has just shown video of an Atom based cordless home phone.

The world’s biggest chip show is on this week in San Francisco and we’re there to bring you live coverage. Stay tuned for news on Atom, Core i7, Larrabee and more.
