In addition to cooking up a heap of processors to bash rival AMD with, Intel is said to be preparing the introduction of a new remote PC access technology. Dubbed Remote Wake, the function will enable Intel-powered PCs to wake up when an internet phone call is received. The first Intel motherboards supporting Remote Wake will be targeting the desktop segment and will apparently begin shipping next month.
The wake-on-call feature will work when the PC call comes via a 'classic' Ethernet connection but not through WiFi. Those worrying about having their PC 'disturbed' by any call can breathe easy as the software used by Remote Wake will let the user choose which callers will trigger the remote function. More info coming soon.
