Intel, finally decided to name their Montevina platform as Centrino 2. These are the next generation (actually the 5th generation) notebook processors that will support Penryn, the 45nm technology, and should be presented in June during the Computex Taipei 2008 Conference.
Intel is counting on giving " consumers the feeling of a tangible upgrade and will hopefully spur replacement demand".
The company will deliver six Centrino 2 notebook processors, all with 1066 MHz front-side bus and should run from 2.26 GHz to 3.06 GHz which is a big increase if you compare them with what's on the market right now: 800MHz FSB processors running at 2.6 GHz.
The new processors will be used for sure in Apple's MacBook and MacBook Pro while processors for the MacBook Air should be available in the third quarter of 2008.
