Cirrus - <After looking at another PDF linked to from this one, I noticed the current stepping for Cumine is A2 as this PDF states.
This must be what Chuck and Paul have said about a new stepping for Cumine.
This PDF says the new stepping first availability isn't until April 7. In Intel's words, this is what that means ->
I don't know if you can infer that any of the steppings listed will be 512 cache size. It may be, it may not.
Also, I believe the date you refer to is an estimate, not a hard fact, i.e., it would be subject to upward revision (the key word is "Forecasted" :-)).
I do not feel comfortable going into descriptive detail on how information in this document either relates, or doesn't relate, to what is going on with product and process development, and subsequent achievement of milestones.
I would suggest keeping all this in mind, and correlate it to events going forward to test and evaluate the effectiveness of your models, e.g., attempting to discern Cumine milestones going forward by interpreting the stepping info listed on the product specification. Some of it may work out for you, some of it may not. I actually admire your tenacity on this. Good luck.
