"Either bin splits are bad and AMD has to flog these as Durons and hence Sony useage." But Intel's sweetspot for mobiles is down around 700MHz maybe 800MHz, why would they need to have mobile Durons at 800MHz and 850MHz, why not Athlon4s? Remember that Intel had to stop shipment on their 1GHz PIII for unspecified reasons until the end of this month, so Intel does not have a competing 1GHz processor right now. So your question is a good one, why not just cut Sony (or anyone) a great deal and sell them as Athlon4s? It would make better sense.
