Every indication seems to show they are committed to the Tegra and it's way too late to change hardware spec other than adding an extra port.
Barring something like Nvidia stepping in and deciding they'll personally help out and give them a deal on Tegra 4 for the publicity or something... I can't see that changing.
It is a bit sad to see that there are 50 dollar Android 4.0 TV sticks selling from China right now. And they are using Mali 400s which are actually faster than the Tegra. http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/581994032/hot_sale_mini_HD_1080P_android.html http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/581994032/hot_sale_mini_HD...
There will probably be 5 more, all faster, by the time this thing launches in Mar 2013.
- trotsky 14y agoWhile that mali gpu is very nice the extra cores, codecs and ram with the tegra makes it much more of an all around solution. While the cheap single core + mali socs that are doing such high volume are damn impressive performers don't overlook the advantages they get with a bigger name design including dev boards, long lifetime parts, better qa&docs and the nvidia developer outreach programs.
