    The 9600GT is the G94 and, according to the datesheet published last month, the G94M cards are gonna be the 9700M GTS, 9800M GT & 9800M GTS. So they will be for 17'' if you ask me.

    The 8700M GT has been renamed 9650M GS. The data sheet also has the 9650M GT & 9700M GT that will be 55nm cards with a 128bits bus

    The M860TU will probably have it as an option.Or at least the 9600M GE,whatever that is.

    Asus G1sn has the 9500m GS. Like I said, the 9600m GT does not exist.

    It has a 9500M GS, which is a 8600M GT. It might also have been the 9650M GS, which is a 8700M GT

    As I said, only the M860TU appears to be featuring it for now, and it`s a GE version, so it sounds crappy.
    I would expect the 9600M GT, if ever will it get released to be close to the 8800M GTS.

    Which means the 9600mGT will probably be a bit faster than the 8700mGT available now. Not much to get excited about over the 8600mGT IMO.

    The Clevo M860TU shows that it will have 9600M GS 256MB GDDR3 in its user manual.

    Interesting stuff. Zepto says 1500 more and notebookcheck is about a 1k and it will probably be able to overclock higher.

    Yes, it is.

    Yes, and hopefully also for the 14 incher, which Zepto is also releasing soon.

    I'd say the 9600M GS in a 14.1 though.

    I just hope the 9600M GT mainstream is gonna be GDDR3 1600 and not DDR2 800....

    the zeptos are way too pricey to get a decent config, still holding out for another company to have info on notebooks with the 9600

    As soon as montevina gets released, I expect the 9th series to hit the mainstream.
