Maybe there is a C7 "under" development. The C6+ is supposed to come out this summer. If IDT is serious about targeting a share of the Intel pie, their development pipeline would not stop in six months. It's always bigger, better, faster, more -- even for the targeted sub-$1k market.

They are sinking a lot of dough in a state of the art 0.25u(or lower?), 8 inch wafer fab. You don't need that kind of resolution to make SRAM's or FIFO's. Why not push your current leading-edge CPU architecture out so that your $$$ fab is fully utilized?

Maybe the C7 will have the "common" (AMD/Cyrix/IDT) 3D video engine that will compete head-to-head with Intel?
