Briefly: Android sales vs. App Store, Intel notebook cooling
AppleInsider —
... on the first three days after the iPhone 3G launch. Intel tech promises to avoid scorching notebook shells In a bid to reduce the outer temperature of laptops -- which are commonly renamed as notebooks to avoid lawsuits over burn injuries -- Intel at its Developer Forum on Thursday revealed a new cooling technique . The Core processor maker says it has found a way to imitate the laminar airflow technology of a jet engine underneath a notebook to literally push the hot air emanating from the inside of a notebook out and away from the bottom and thus prevent it from scorching ...
Intel Licensing Laptop Cooling Systems Based Upon Jet Engine Tech [Laptops]
Gizmodo —
... . The technology utilizes a laminar (non-turbulent) airflow to push heat away from the bottom of the case, making your laptop suitable for your lap again. Intel finds this technology particularly important as their new mobile processors are bound to be thinner but run hotter. So hang on, Goose. This ride might get bumpy. [CNET via ...
Intel Copies Jet Engines to Solve Heating Problem
Wired: Gadget Lab —
As notebooks get thinner and more powerful, the major challenge is
keeping their temperatures cool. It's so challenging, in fact, that
Intel is modeling its new cooling technology after the method jet
engines use to push away heat.
The process is called laminar airflow, which ensures air is flowing in
parallel layers so heat doesn't stay at the bottom of a notebook. In
addition, Intel plans to tweak its upcoming Calpella laptop platform
to deal with heat more intelligently by shutting down extra processor
cores when they're unused and turning them on when they're actually
needed.

Intel’s Cooling System To Cool Laptop Exterior
Gadgetreview —
Intel developed a cooling system designed to cool the exterior of ultra-thin laptops. Up until now, all the cooling technology focused on cooling the interior of the laptop. But Intel, realizing the need to cool the exterior of extra toasty, ultra thin lapburntops, created a solution based on laminar air flow. To put it simply, the hot air underneath the laptop is carried away, resulting in comfortable and happy laps.
