I just saw this on macnn.com and thought some of you might be interested:

"PowerLogix: new 1.1GHz G3 upgrade, lower G4 pricing
PowerLogix today announced "the fastest processor ever designed" for PowerMac G3 Beige and "Blue and White" computers as well as lower pricing on G4 upgrades. The new 1.1GHz PowerForce G3 ZIF offers up to fives times the original clock speed of original G3 Power Mac computers; it is now shipping for $350. The company also reduced prices on its PowerForce G4 CPU upgrades. Utilizing the PowerPC 7457, the upgrades offer twice the L2 cache and generate 40% less heat than previous G4 processors; they work with G4 PowerMac models (from AGP to QuickSilver 2002). The 1.2GHz PowerForce G4 is now $400 ($40 reduction) and the 1.4GHz model is $440 ($100 reduction). The dual-processor PowerForce G4 is now $750 ($150 reduction)."
