WiDi just requires a Intel processor with a GMA able to handle the streaming and a Intel Centrino wireless with Intel MyWiFi Technology enabled.

Intel actually already tried it with the Cedar Trail ATOM, it was just limited to about 600p resolution streaming at the time.

So they could do it again with Clover Trail, but it may not be a priority if it’s still limited.

Meaning they may wait, or not all units may offer it, until the 22nm update rolls out for the ATOM and adds some Ivy Bridge technology to the ATOM.

However, mind the Pro Windows 8 tablets will be running on Core i-Series!

Actually there are many higher resolution win8 tablets but apparently not with Clover trail (yet).

1920×1080 (about all Core i5/i7):

- Acer Iconia Tab W700
- Asus Transformer book
- Dell XPS Duo 12
- Microsoft Surface windows 8 pro
- Samsung Ativ Smart PC Pro Series 7
- Sony VAIO Duo 11 Slider

Lenovo Yoga is 1600×900.

I hope i wont get stoned for an off the wall question but does anyone know or recommend, how much GB should be left empty on an 128 ssd hardrive with 91.4 GB space to start with for the system to still run smoothly. I like to fill up my Samsung Series 9 to the brim but beem wondering lately if I am not running into problems for doing so (defrag space ect.)
How much space do you guys leave free on your 128 ssd devices at minimum ?

These devices have at most an 11.6″ screen. Having a higher resolution won’t make much difference other than smaller text that you need to make larger (ie. the same size it would have been with a lower resolution).

Also, Windows 8 doesn’t exactly have resolution independence. It just has some sort of hard coded scaling related to pixel density. This, again, increases the size of fonts and uses higher resolution images on small high resolution screens.

I do think that 1366×768 is too low for larger screens though but this article doesn’t talk about those devices.

Doesn’t WiDi tech require an i Series processor. I wonder if they would include it in the atom line.

Intel is pushing its proprietary WiDi technology for wireless display capability.

There’s some demonstrations you can look at on youtube if you want to see it in action…
