Acer is preparing a netbook / nettop-based Nvidia ION 2?

Details about the characteristics of the platform ION 2 of the company Nvidia still does not come, but it became known that one of the largest producers of technology already interested in it. According to the resource DigiTimes, Acer has already ordered the platform for their netbook and nettop, which will be built on the basis of chipsets Intel Atom N450, N470, D510 and D410. Although official confirmation of this information was not, but there are rumors that the products based on the new series of Intel processors will be presented Jan. 11, 2010.

While the original platform was Ion chipset with IGP, the new version is somewhat different from it, to ensure compatibility with Intel Pine Trial (version of the Trail-M for netbooks and Trail-D version for nettop). The platform from Intel as a "north bridge (memory controller hub) were transferred to the processor, so Nvidia ION 2 would operate as a separate processor. This source noted that the company does not reject its plans to develop a new chipset that is compatible with the platforms of the company VIA Technologies.
