Arm Holdings has been in the business of designing chip for different handsets and smartphones such as the popular Apple iPhone for more than a decade now. Arm Holdings reign in the business is unquestionable, but now they are facing rivalry with another company named Intel. Just recently, Intel exhibited the smartphone LG Electronics GW900 based on the company’s patent Moorestown platform.

While Intel strives to get into the world of smaller devices, Arm Holdings is targeting the products termed as smartbooks. These so-called smartbook products like e-readers, tablets and low-cost laptops are where Intel expertise lays and now Arm Holdings is now aspiring Intel’s turf. The PC manufacturers Lenovo and Hewlett-Packard Co. announced that they are currently developing a low-cost Skylight smartbook consisting of a Qualcomm’s Snapdragon processor designed by Arm Holdings.
