    AMD will be introducing a new high-end desktop platform early in 2009 called Dragon. Dragon will use 45nm Phenom II X4 quad-core Deneb processors and Radeon HD 4800 graphics. Kodiak 45nm Phenom processors for business computers are set for release at the same time.

    In the second half of 2009 AMD will introduce Pisces, a platform using 45nm Phenom II quad and triple-core CPUs with support for DDR3 memory. The platform will also use the coming AMD RS880 chipset. A new home theater platform is coming before the end of 2008 called Maui that promises to link Vista Home Premium and Ultimate to devices needed for HD TV viewing.

    So I think us AM2 users will have some more processors coming. Faster and cooler.

    It would be nice if the Pisces platform maintains AM2 support and the only thing that changes is the chipset. But the thought of 4800 series video being integrated sounds awesome.
