Clearspeed Makes Tall Claims for Future Chip 254
Josuah writes "ClearSpeed Technology announced today a new multithreaded array processor named the CS301. Their press release states the chip can achieve 25Gflops for only 3W of power. New Scientist and TechNewsWorld have articles on this chip, each with more information about the chip. I wondering if this is too good to be true." The key phrase is in the Wired story: "Soon to be in prototype, the chip...". "Soon to be in prototype" is synonymous with "does not exist".

25Gflops on 3W? That must be some unorthodox technology at work there. Anyone hear anything about some research corporation finding an amazing processor in a robot from the future?
