Intel will launch its 90nm Penitum M processor, codenamed 'Dothan' next Monday, 10 May, sources close to the company have confirmed.
As yet there's no confirmation of the launch's details. However, Intel is still expected to unveil three 90nm Pentium Ms, clocked at 1.7GHz, 1.8GHz and 2GHz. The chips will carry the model numbers 735, 745 and 755, and be priced at $294, $423 and $637, previous reports have suggested.
The launch will necessitate a price cut for the older, 130nm PMs, with the 1.5GHz, 1.6GHz and 1.7GHz parts falling to $209, $241 and $294 from today's $241, $294 and $423, respectively. Those reductions amount to cuts of 13.3 per cent, 18 per cent and 30.5 per cent, respectively.
