Arm has appointed Tony Fadell, designer of the iPod and former CEO of Nest Labs, to its board.

“After working with Arm technology for 30+ years, I’m thrilled to join its board. It is silicon’s lingua franca, powering hundreds of billions of products. I couldn’t have built the iPod, iPhone, or Nest without Arm, and will help ensure every future builder is enabled by this essential company,” Mr. Fadell said in a statement.
