Bad news from 5 weeks ago:
"AppliedMicro has scuppered its APM83290 dual-CPU IC based on the Titan CPU it developed with Intrinsity. Instead of selling the processor as a product, AppliedMicro will offer it as a development vehicle to customers and then convert these customers to undisclosed, forthcoming 40nm processors with similar capabilities but a different CPU." http://www.mdronline.com/processor_watch/watch_issue.php?processor_watch_id=646 http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:www.mdronline.com/watch/watch24_0709.html#3
"AppliedMicro will not productize its first dual-CPU processor, the 90nm APM83290, which was developed in conjunction with Intrinsity. Instead, the company will supply this processor only in sample quantities and later convert customers to a homegrown 40nm processor." http://www.mdronline.com (under "July 5, 2010")
