If you’re a regular visitor of PMP Today or have owned a cheap PMP from China, you might have heard of the rockchip processor. The company behind it is threatening to develop a rockchip processors that will be capable of running Android and will retail for a lot less than the competition. They have already released such chip, the RK2808. Now, of course, no one has tested it yet but it is plainly evident that rockchip processors will be more powerful in the future. The company also promises to release an RK2808-based PMP this July or later and by October we may see an official Chinese Android phone powered by rockchip RK2808.

    [...] Rockchip, already a favorite among dirt cheap, feature-laden PMPs, has its sights set on Android and we couldn’t be happier. The company sees Android’s free nature being the perfect match for the Chinese market, and plans to release its low-cost RK2808 chipset in October to take advantage of that. In addition to Android, Rockchip claims the RK2808 enables additional multimedia capability over what’s currently available in Android handsets. No matter how well the RK2808 pans out, it’s obvious that the second half of this year will mark a real explosion in Android, and if we could get some $100 or $200 unlocked imports mixed in there somewhere, we certainly wouldn’t be complaining.
