NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--Microsoft Corp. (MSFT) is working with Santa Clara, Calif.-based Transmeta Corp. (TMTA) on another mysterious hardware project, the Seattle Post-Intelligencer reported on its Web site Monday.
The newspaper said Transmeta, which specializes in microprocessors for hand-held computers and other machines, disclosed in a regulatory filing last week that it had "substantially completed" the work required under a series of "development services agreements" it signed with Microsoft last year.
Microsoft said the work isn't related to the tiny "Ultra Mobile PCs" unveiled earlier this month as part of its previously secret Origami Project, the Post-Intelligencer said, but neither company will say what Transmeta has been doing for Microsoft.
The filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission describe the initiative only as a "proprietary Microsoft project," and about 30 Transmeta engineers have been assigned to the effort, the newspaper said.
It said some analysts speculate that the deal could reflect Microsoft's desire to see hardware makers release new types of machines to generate extra consumer interest later this year, when it launches Windows Vista, the next version of its flagship operating system.
In a conference call last month, Transmeta Chief Executive Art Swift told analysts that he wasn't able to disclose many details of the Microsoft deal because of a non-disclosure agreement, the Post-Intelligencer said. But he acknowledged that the work involves a variation on the company's Efficeon processor, a power-efficient chip that uses the common x86 architecture on which programs from Microsoft and many others run.
The newspaper noted that Microsoft often shows new hardware prototypes at its annual Windows Hardware Engineering Conference. The next one begins May 23 in Seattle.
