"Don't you think that we would have heard something about it if the chip was being that widely distributed?"

No. We didn't hear that about the A4s or the mobile Durons, yet they clearly saw use. Even AMD, who likes to trumpet design wins, kept quiet until the day of the announcement.

So could they be having a problem? Sure. Is there any basis to suspect that based on their behaviour? No. Recently, this is exactly how they behave with a new product.

Several photos of Thoroughbreds were leaked late last fall when the samples first started shipping. AMD clamped down, and we haven't seen much since.

But those photos of samples were reassuring.
