NVIDIA Tegra APX 2600 mobile chipset on Android revealed

NVIDIA's Tegra APX 2600 chipset has made an appearance in the flesh at Mobile World Congress, and this time, it's running Google Android on a proof-of-concept unit, and on another, delivering 1080p video with 10 hours of battery life to boot, reports Engadget.

Impressive stuff.

It reportedly took NVIDIA just a few weeks to port Android to the capacitive touchscreen device. Additionally, the Android-running Yulong N8 and IAC S2 Tegra APX phones also made a cameo in non-working prototype form. Bottom line? This chipset isn't just for MIDs.
