Centrino 2 = Intel Montevina platform

Intel tries to reduce consumer confusion

Intel has apparently decided to call the upcoming Montevina mobile platform the "Centrino 2" platform.

Reportedly consumers have been confused by the changing nature of the Centrino platform - which has gone through "Carme", "Sonoma", "Napa" and "Santa Rosa" incarnations - the confusion arising from not knowing from certain which generation of mobile technology one was getting in their Centrino notebook.

By naming the new platform "Centrino 2" customers will know that they are getting a Montevina platform instead of an earlier Intel platform.

Intel will also reportedly launch six 45nm mobile processors - the new processors will all apparently come with a 1066MHz FSB and core speeds between 2.26 and 3.06GHz. Prices are reported to be between $209 and $851 in 1000 unit OEM lots. Seven more SFF mobile processors may be launched in Q3.
