Dammit. I was hoping these were coming out this year as soon as WP 7 is released. My 5-year old phone is dying, I don't think I can wait that long, I've waited long enough for WP 7. I wonder how good the new Samsung and Nvidia chips are. Guess this means that the HTC HD7 (HD3) won't be released next week in the UK/Aus, cause I'll have no doubt if HTC is going to be the main user of Qualcomm CPU's.

Netbooks can already use Core i3s, so this would be a step back for netbooks.
