You should see R300,Parhelia 512,P-10 in late Summer and Fall, since the R300 is a Dx9 part it will be released approx. around Dx9 release.
I keep seeing posts about Nv30 being delayed until 2003 due to .13 micron yields, maybe Ryoko or Digitalwanderer know more.
The P10 will be a interesting part for sure, Perhelia reviews should start in the middle of June.
