Here's a quote from a message I recieved back from AMD investor relations regarding the introduction of Sharpy:

"Nothing has slipped. We are on schedule to meet the processor roadmap that we have outlined."

According to the same message, that roadmap is:

1) Intro of Sharpy in LATE Q4 1998.
2) Appearance of Sharpy-based boxes on the shelves within 89 days (production lead time).

The latter is presumably where the Q2 number comes from. But the facts seem to indicate that K6-3 will be available much sooner. Finally, from an accounting perspective (which ultimately is what matters) AMD will start booking K6-3 sales as it ships to OEMs in late Q4 1998.

Hope this clears up your FUD. Sharpy hasn't slipped.

If it makes you really nervous, I suggest you call AMD investor relations and ask them yourself. After all, you claim you're a shareholder.
