AMD (AMD) to Unveil Potential Game-Changing Tablet Platform Oct. 9th

Article Stock Quotes (3) Comments (0)

Advanced Micro Devices (NYSE: AMD) is slightly lower on the session amid reports it is planning to make a tablet announcement tomorrow.

According to a video on YouTube and a Williams Financial analyst, the announcement may relate to AMDs Brazos-T tablet.

The Brazos-T will comprise the Hondo APU and the Hudson M2T FCH (Fusion controller Hub), both of which include key power-saving features. Brazos-T is said to have a sub-4.5W TDP.

One slide leaked earlier in the year had the Time-to-Release for the platform right along with Microsoft's (Nasdaq: MSFT) Windows 8 operating system.

Williams said Brazos-T will compete "very well" with the likes of Intel's (Nasdaq: INTC) Atom platform and overall participation in the tablet market is a "strong positive" for AMD investors.

AMD is down about 40 percent year-to-date, currently at lows not seen since March 2009.
