Petz - <Will the PIII-500 mobile still be on the 0.18µ process?>

I believe so.

<What, in the article at 204.247.196.14, do you consider to be a "leap of logic?">

I was responding to kash with that statement, regarding certain speculations on the thread. No biggie. Article is accurate for what it is reporting.

<I don't think the PII price cuts are related to the 0.18 process problems, after all the PII's are more expensive to make than the PIII's, correct? (so Intel wants to get rid of them)>

I think you are mostly correct. However, Intel wants to promote the PIII as a platform, and this may be a primary reason for the PII cuts. Also, I have reason to believe the .25 600 part was being considered well before the .18 issues were apparent.
