Another thing to keep in mind w.r.t. the Smithfield dual-cores is that the performance vs. MHz scaling will not be that good. Single shared FSB, and not shared too optimally according to many. Which makes the cheapest one at $240 all the more surprising.

Are OEMs balking because of power/heat/motherboard issues? Or does Intel really intend to make a huge production shift over to dual-core chips?
