Is AMD going to come up with a new trade name for "codename" Morgan?

Q10: Does the Mobile AMD Duron have AMD PowerNow!™ technology?

A10: No. AMD PowerNow!™ technology is planned for our mobile processors, codenamed "Palomino" and "Morgan," scheduled for launch later in 2001. We're pleased that our manufacturing capabilities allow us to serve our customers by bringing a mobile processor to market based on the current desktop AMD processor.


That implies that Morgan chips will be called something other than "mobile Duron." I hope that's a mistake and they meant to say:
A10: "No, Mobile Duron does not yet have PowerNow!™ technology, but it will when ..."

Perhaps the Austin equivalent of the "AXIA" stepping is the factor that resulted in enough additional frequency headroom to allow many Duron chips to reach 800 MHz on 1.4 volts.
