nForce Release Dates & Prices?

Hey,

Does anyone know what the approximate release dates for nForce motherboards are? Also, which manufacturers will be producing boards with the nForce chip? Feature-set and pricing information would also be helpful.

Thanks.

Nvidia tests PC waters with AMD chipset
Advanced Micro Devices and Nvidia will make a show of nForce next week.

The new Nvidia nForce chipset for AMD Athlon/Duron, announced in June, will make its debut next week in motherboards and desktop PCs, an Nvidia representative said.

A slew of motherboard makers and some smaller PC makers are expected to announce products based on the new chipset. A chipset is a key component inside a PC, a cluster of chips that serves as the go-between for the processor, system memory and input/output devices such as hard drives. More recently, chipsets including the nForce have grown to adopt graphics as well.

Feh... I was trying to decide between upgrading my PC and getting a new laptop. Poo-poo to nVidia for debuting it right after my laptop shipped.

Damn you! Mine probably won't get here until Monday... unless FedEx delivers 2Day packages on Saturdays.
