    when do you think we'll start seeing 7900's in laptops?
    I'm guessing 3-5 months since they just came out with the desktop 7900's

    Don't know. Nvidia hasn't even announced that part yet....so we don't know when they plan on producing/releasing them.

    Well.. nVidia announced 7600GS today, and no Go 7900 yet. Maybe in the afternoon! :(

    Chaz?

    Come on Nvidia . . .you said today, don't let us down!

    I can't say more about the cards themselves but the release date clearly says the 22nd. . .

    Time will tell.

    No it doesn't and no I won't. You need to understand that a lot of what we know is under NDA. I wouldn't have even said what I did, but the news of the 7900 mobile is pretty much out there at this point.

    I've found quite a few sites with info on it, hence the reason why I posted the date in the first place. Try a google search or go to dogpile. The info is there.

    Thanks,
    Chaz

    Strange, I've looked hard for any kind of info on this for several days, trying all my artillery to get a release date. No luck. Hints? :)

    Sorry, but under NDA we can't release any information. Please stop asking. There is no date set, all they said was a simple "it's been delayed."

    I would probably guess that it would be April-May, seems likely.
