Do you really believe Intel pulled in Merom by 4-5 months with no change in the clock speeds or wattage? And cutting the FSB to 667 MHz to reduce power consumption will have an effect on IPC relative to desktop Core 2, so I wouldn't count on any IPC advantage over Turion X2 at all.

I expect that only the lowest speed grade or two (1.83 and 2 GHz), of the parts listed in your 3-month-old Dailytech article, will be available at launch, and Intel has made no promise that the "design power" will stay at 31 watts.
