Intel Turbo Memory for desktops will arrive later than first expected

Oddly enough for a technology with a moniker including the word turbo in it, Intel’s Robson (Turbo Memory) technology is expected to bee delayed for a quarter or two, according to DigiTimes.
Intel more streamlined solution for the inclusion of NAND flash RAM into PCs was announced to be on its way from the laptop to the desktop PCs, Intel said at Computex Taipei this year. It was scheduled to be shipping by Q3 2007 in its 1.0 version.
But it seems that the performances obtained with the 1.0 BIOS are not on par with the company’s expectations. In the light of these disappointing results, Intel decided to postpone the launch of the product until the version 1.5 of the BIOS is made available, and does function as intended. Turbo Memory compliant motherboards are now expected to ship by the end of 2007 (Q4), or by early 2008 (Q1).
