Is 3GIO/PCI Express on any MoBo/Chipset Manuf RoadMap?

if i remember correctly, they'll be featured in Intel's Grantsdale(chipset for Prescott with Socket T)

Intel's Grantsdale chipset is expected to include 4 SATA ports on the chipset, the LGA 775 socket, PCI-Express, and maybe DDR2. PCI-Express' most important purpose is to replace the obsolete 133MB/s PCI bus, and PCI-Ex GFX is a welcome side. PCI-Ex GFX will be tied directly to the memory through the chipset like AGP is now. Also, PCI-Ex(press) is a serial implimentation, not to be confused with PCI-X, a parallel interface used in server machines which is 66MHz and 64bit for 533MB/s interface. Historically, it will take about as long for PCI to be phased out as it did for ISA, which is still present in many systems today, though not in enthusist's/gamer's systems. Peace.
 
Grantsdale chipset.

And my PCI Express article is 6 months late (I'll get around to finishing it one of these days).
