You know this was coming, through the "Larrabee", AMD/ATI merger and no chipset licenses for the green camp.
Nvidia's Mike Rayfield, the man in charge of the unit that built Tegra, talked to Hexus and mentioned that the company will be focusing it's core business in mobile chip solutions in the coming years.
This is hardly unexpected given Nvidia's current chipset woes and betting it all on GPUs will become even tougher as both AMD and Intel start to integrate them more into CPUs. Nvidia has been loosing money in the last two quarters in part due to the great pressure from the profitable GPU division of AMD.
Nvidia has finally grabbed some design wins, namely the Zune HD, and is expecting to launch "smartbooks" and other 50 mobile devices that are currently in design phase.
