Next Athlon XP speed

[Evmonk]

Anyone know when AMD is releasing an Athlon XP 2000+ or greater? I'm about to buy a computer but if they are going to be releasing a 2000+ chip or something even faster in the near future, I'd rather have that then the current fastest chip (1900+). Any help would be much appreciated as I've found nothing on this in my searches on the internet. Thanks.

By the way just to clarify, I'm asking about the Athlon XP 2000+, not an actual 2 GHz chip. I guess the XP 2000+ would run at about 1.7 GHz. Just making sure you all know that I'm asking a different question from the one posed a few threads down.

The AthlonXP 2000+ is currently schedules to be launched sometime in December, it'll be based on the current Palomino core and will be clocked at 1.67GHz.
