Anand confirms Intel roadmap, including 2/28/99 Pentium III release:
Contrary to initial information posted about the Pentium III, it will run on Slot-1 BX motherboards, at the 100MHz FSB, and will only contain 32KB of L1 cache. It will be introduced on February 28, 1998 in two speeds, 450MHz and 500MHz.
We'll have to live with 500MHz until mid-year when the Pentium III makes the jump to the next level of performance after being paired up with the upcoming Camino chipset. At this point (sometime between June and September of this year) the Pentium III will be bumped up to the 133MHz FSB, and will make it up to speeds greater than 533MHz.

So my worst fear of an earlier Pentium III release or clock speed > 500MHz appears less likely.
