If I connect the nodes right, dies (!) for Smithfield are mezzanine yields from Intels 2BM-process. So its packaging will be more costly than fabbing its dies.

And yes, sure it's crappy. AMD folks certainly know all that. And have a dozen of 939-dualcore-parts ready to ship to reviewers by the time Smithfield is sent out for reviews. Labeled FX2 - or whatever.
