Monica, Just web rumours and hints that samples are being looked at.

As for the use by leading blade makers, there are innovative blade makers that are using AMD parts, perhaps one day the leaders will see this and see their success(if) and then place them into blades.

As Tony says, lower power is needed, AMD heads in that direction, but many AMD parts are suitable for blade use since not all requirements are for low power.

Current lower power AMD devices are aimed at laptops and cost more than the blade market wishes to pay.
In addition, it is quite correct that AMD does not have a part for every place that Intel has a part...they are a smaller company, however recenet acquisitions should help the lower power parts enter the blade market in a year or so.
