Intel p? New Technology

[stebesplace]

Does anyone have word, either from Comdex or where ever, on the new Pentiums? Going to be a higher more powerful p4 or move to a p5 or some other goofy name? 800 MHz FSB?

If anyone has word or speculation, post it here.

Thanks,

Due for release at 3.2GHz in the second quarter of next year, the chip will feature 1MB of Level 2 on-die cache?twice as much memory as current Pentium 4s have. Larger on-die caches improve a chip's performance by reducing the time it needs to access memory.

Along with Prescott's release, Intel will introduce a chip set, code-named Springdale, which will feature a 333MHz, dual-channel, double-data-rate synchronous dynamic RAM memory controller and will support Prescott's 667MHz front-side bus speed.

Thought this was intresting as part of it. I am sure there might be more info though if anyone knows or have talked with people about it.
