    Only one TL type CPU compare Turion ML/MT product line. I guess they just push 1.2V version first, the 1.075V maybe come later?

    TL-52 is pretty impressive, 31W, compare to intel Duo 31W but 65nm tech. The same frequency, 1.6G, Intel gives the mark T2300(wonder what that mean?).

    Anyhow, V3000 is about to roll

    yeah, the x2 is going to be insane. Any idea when the v3000 and dv2000 are going to be released with the turion x2?

    I don't think you'll see a 25watt TDP Turion64 X2 this year. AMD will hold off on any "TT" type processor until they move to 65nm next year. Even then it will be tough

    I would think of if they can release ultra-low volte Turion single core first. Most users don't use x2 peak performance. But 1.075V is really attractive.

    We're not 100% sure, but the DV2000/V3000 is coming in a few days. Whether or not it'll include the X2 is unknown.

    HP has announced that the dv2000 would be released on the 24th, as MGS2392 mentioned we'll have to wait and see if they release both the Intel and AMD versions simultaniously.

    The mobile Athlon 64 x2 on socket AM2 is scheduled to be released next week. If there is also a 2 weeks delay between the Turion x2 and equipped laptop, we would expect the the mobile Athlon 64 x2 laptop in 2-3 weeks. This one would be more likely to be used in DV8000 and desktop replacement.
