Arrandale Laptops: When ?

Anybody know when the Arrandale based laptops are getting released ?

For who that don't know, this is intel's mobile 32nm processor featuring a 45nm IGP in the processor.

Thinking, this should save a lot of battery over current offerings.

Need a laptop for university, with good battery life.

Looking at current offerings at Best Buy near about $500. If anyone have any suggestions, shoot. Not looking for performance, even T4300 and a GM45 should do.

Would have gone with HD 4200 IGP, but it's 55nm and consumes more power than intel's x4500. ATI's new 40nm IGPs may change my opinion.
 
I'm in a similar boat looking for the teenager's laptops for college in the fall. I'm holding out for the arrandale's. I just hope they are priced similarly to the current gen laptops.

I hope so too, but knowing Intel, they will be priced higher than similarily performing laptops just because they are new tech
