What will be the fastest Socket-A CPU ever released?

I've read that the 3200+ will be the end of the line for the Athlon XP, however, I'm wondering if AMD will possibly release something faster. There is a huge installed base of Athlon systems, and it would make sense for them to continue to release processors for Socket-A. Any ideas?
 
Intel had a huge installed base of Socket 370 before the P4 came out, and they stopped developing new Socket 370 chips almost immediately as I recall. AMD has more room to move forward with the new architecture & form factor, so I doubt they'll invest much (if anything) in squeezing more power out of the Socket A platform.
