No. Those chips are not the mobile version.

No. Those chips are not the mobile version.

The linked article seems to indicate otherwise...

The November launch date encompasses initial shipments for both desktop and mobile parts, with more extensive OEM shipments expected in early 2008. The one exception to this is in the Extreme desktop sector, where OEM shipments should occur before the year is out.

I had thought that the mobile parts also weren't coming until next year. I'd look for another source here.

There won't be significant shipments of mobile parts this year.
