The die size of the Cascades is huge - and with fab capacity at a premium - and the standard XEONS (with external L2 cache) selling fairly well - Intel may have made a smart business decision to delay the intro until it catches up on the standard Coppermine production. --- It looks like those "old-style" Xeons are doing just fine. Take a look at this - the new #1 and #2 in TPC-Cs are using Xeon-550s!
