</div>We can definitely look into it, the problem is we already have a<br>
backlog of stuff with higher priority (finishing 3D, newer power<br>
management bits, investigating IDCT/UVD, etc.) to work through at the<br>
moment, so I cannot say when we'd get to hybrid graphics. The other<br>
problem is that since many of these hybrid solutions are multi-vendor,<br>
we may not have the rights release certain IP. Even if would could<br>
release some information, as has been stated previously, the driver<br>
stack needs significant work to support something like this.<br>
