NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang previously mentioned that more Tegra 3-powered tablets
would be coming to the market this summer, starting at the low price of
$199. At the company’s annual shareholders’ meeting last week, vice
president Rob Csonger
revealed Kai, a plan to democratize its quad-core Tegra 3
system-on-a-chip. NVIDIA is looking to offer tablets that are more
powerful than Amazon’s Kindle Fire, but that will be offered at the same
low price point. “Our strategy on Android is simply to enable quad-core
tablets running Android Ice Cream Sandwich to be developed and brought
out to market at the $199 price point, and the way we do that is a
platform we’ve developed called Kai,” he said. “So this uses a lot of
the secret sauce that’s inside Tegra 3 to allow you to develop a tablet
at a much lower cost, by using a lot of innovation that we’ve developed
to reduce the power that’s used by the display and use lower cost
components within the tablet.”
