<<<<If you're waiting for a 1.8GHz, 2MB L2 cache Pentium M processor, you're going to have to wait until next year. It looks as though that's when the mobile chips will start shipping.
Intel is probably experiencing some major problems with its 90nm process technology as it postpones its code-named Dothan processor designed for mobile personal computers till the first quarter next year from the fourth quarter this year after the delay of a 90nm CPU for desktops previously.
Earlier Intel postponed the release of the highly-anticipated Prescott processor from the Q2 2003 to the Q4 2003 because of an undisclosed reason. Recently sources in the industry said that heat-dissipation and power-consumption of the newcomer will be much higher than originally estimated, as a result, current mainboards will not be compatible with Prescott (see this and this news-stories). Now this Japanese web-site has published an Intel roadmap, according to which an Intel Pentium M incarnation code-named Dothan is postponed till early next year from late this year.>>>>>>>>>>>>
One Intel postpones due to the new INTEL MICROWAVE OVEN processor production system
Current Motherboards WILL NOT work with Prescott... look for Prescott in Q2 04 at the earliest
sorry inteliots....
