GRAPHICS CARD FOR UR MOBILE!!!
:D I thought this was a very interesting article so pls see the urls also:-

ATI's chip for mobile phones,,Imageon 2300, enables exceptional 3D gaming that will fully leverage and help monetize the higher bandwidth offered by 2.5G and 3G networks.
The chip is designed to take on other handset graphics-processing chores besides 3D: it handles 2D graphics; MPEG 4 decoding for 30 frames-per-second video playback; video capture; and image compression and decompression.
The Imageon line supports the OpenGL ES programming interface for rendering 3D, a subset of the OpenGL API (application programming interface) used in the PC world.

this is the latest from the mobile gfx card scene:-

A demonstration of a cell phone development unit running videogame " MotoGP " at the Consumer Electronic Show was particularly impressive, with good image quality and a frame rate of perhaps 20 frames per second. The same game running in typical software rendering mode was quite ugly and so slow it would be unplayable. At 100MHz, the maximum expected chip performance, it delivers a 100 megapixels fill rate. That's one pixel pipeline with one texture unit.

Nvidia Mobile processor is being used in W810i, & since i have used it i can say, video recording is awsome

Wow, thanx Saura, I was like, why there is no mention of nVidia GoForce GPU, and that of W900i, which was first (from SE) to have 3D hardware chip.
