I just read an article that stated a mini itx motherboard with AMD Jaguar A6-5200 (2.0 GigaHertz clock speed) quad core processor onboard had been released. Earliest mention seems to have been dated at the beginning of June, but no specific date of availability was listed.

I'd like to buy this to use as a small HTPC and/or DVR unit. I might possibly even put one together to dual boot into Windows so the kids can play some older games occasionally.

Anyone have any ideas on when this will be available for purchase, or any ideas on the price?

Thanks!

With both desktop machines and laptops trickling on to the market, January is way too late in my opinion. No official released date is is out for motherboards(or for compelling laptops either) but I am expecting the first boards to come out in august to September time frame. I will buy the first itc board that comes out with the a6-5200 chip, the passmark score is a good step up from the e-350. Can't wan't for an x120e replacement either, just hoping someone will release a jaguar sub 13" laptop with back-lit keys.
