  Detailed Platform Analysis in RightMark Memory Analyzer. Part 12: VIA C7/C7-M Processors
A new generation of desktop/mobile processors VIA C7/C7-M was presented by VIA Technologies relatively recently — in the end of May - beginning of June 2005.
Users of VIA C7/C7-M-based platforms cannot see the latter in action (to be more exact, VIA PowerSaver technology on the whole) — the manufacturer still hasn't developed an official CPU driver, which would allow an operating system to manage power consumption modes of these processors.
In microarchitectural terms, the new Esther core of VIA C7/C7-M processors is not a break-through or something cardinally new.

 New Samsung Q1b to sport Via C7-M processor? - Engadget
Samsung has apparently went back to the drawing board, and is supposedly planning on swapping in a new, more energy efficient processor to preserve those precious minutes of life.
If CNET UK is to be believed, Samsung's forthcoming Q1b will be the one to house a Via C7-M chip -- while speculation involving this move piqued our interest previously, bringing it to fruition is undoubtedly a smart move.
Since it's a Via ULV, the chip can run between 1.0 to 1.5 Ghz; not sure which specific clockspeed that Samsung is going with...

 VIA's carbon-neutral CPU: the C7-D - The Jem Report
VIA's carbon offset measures assume that a C7-D-based computer will be in operation all day, every day for three years, with 27% of that time being spent in standby mode, 3% in sleep mode, 67% in idle mode, and 3% in performance mode.
VIA processors have also traditionally been too slow for a lot of desktop work, though in recent months that reputation has been changing.
VIA's marketing efforts for the C7-D will begin in Europe and Asia, where energy consumption and environmental considerations are of higher importance.
