Don't hold your breath for 5G.
Intel is the DuMont of semiconductors.
Low margin business. Timeframe is 2018-2020. Intel will be a much smaller company by then.
@ - zmz - Good point. Intel has always been a market leader in new technology initiatives, throwing out marketing $$ and countless executive keynotes around the world. Intel creates the market pull, but then pulls out of any actual products other than x86. The WiFi/Centrino phenomenon whetted Intel's appetite, and it was a tsunami that was never repeated. ATCA was another good example. IoT is the current experiment, and to a lesser degree, SDN/NFV.
Intel has been full of sh!t for a while on 'advanced' technology.
WiMAX
DLP TV
CMOS Laser
Xpoint
GPU
Smartphones
Itanium
And on and on
If it's not an x86 processor it's been total FAIL.
I'm not holding my breath LOL
