Tues - Intel makes dent into wireless

Intel announced a deal with RIM to supply processors for next generation models of the Canadian company's Blackberry devices.

Intel has struggled to penetrate mobile devices but has developed a new line that offers improved performance needed to generate the extra power that hits the battery life of cell phones.

Intel is making progress with it's processors in smartphones such as the Blackberry and Palm's Treo.

But, as the smartphone category of the wirless market expands, they should fare better.
