Intel chief Craig Barrett rounded off his trip to the Far East last week by promising that the company will set up an R&D centre in South Korea.
That's in addition to the R&D facility it's planning to establish in Taiwan, announced exactly a week ago, and the joint R&D project it's partnering with Chinese PC maker Legend on, also announced last week.
The South Korean centre will specialise in wireless networking for the home, and processor technology for consumer electronics and wireless systems, local government officials said, according to the Korea Herald. Wireless is also one of the Taiwanese centre's areas of specialisation, while building links between consumer electronics and PCs via WLANs is the core role of the Legend initiative.
