It looks like this is good news for me as I plan on purchasing early-mid September.

Wow, and Penryn coming in November. Looks like I will be upgrading in November just in time for my B-day!

Where did you hear this?

asdftt123, the info on the additional spin was posted before that article (late last week) so it may be that the spin will be released in time for boards to still be ready early September.

They'll probably change this just like the ddr2 support.

I might hold off for one of these.

Intel would have to license the right to use SLI. It is not something that a partner like Asus, Gigabyte, etc. can just toss in; i.e. DDR2 support.
