Yup, the upcoming Geeksphone Revolution, a handset that’ll run either Google’s Android or Mozilla’s Firefox OS, uses an Intel processor.
Specifically Geeksphone Revolution will employ a 1.6GHz Intel Atom Z2560 processor when it ships in the first quarter of 2014, the Spanish company said Friday. The company teased the Geeksphone Revolution in November, with one employee hinting that it had Intel inside.
