awk,

Now that the Arm designed chip makers are putting the TPM.Next in prototype devices leveraging Arm TrustZone, And Windows 8 can turn those TPM's on (and in fact Windows 8 uses the TPM for a secure Trusted Boot) you can see how the consumer market is being readied for Trusted Computing.

Arm Designed chips are the CPU's in 95% of all the world's smart phones and tablets. (includes devices made by Apple, RIM, Samsung, HTC, LG, Nokia, Motorolla, etc.). Arm has made it clear they are entering the PC/Server space in the next couple of years.

The consumer space and existing x86 powered devices will be united. I believe all those chips that will incorporate a TPM.Next specification will take most of 2012 to be made and have to find their way into devices by the end of 2012 into 2013 (my estimate).

Very exiting times. JMO
