Yup, here we go again. Frankly I'm not quite excited about the 9-series like I was the 8-series, for me it meant not that much for the desktop sector. I'm more excited about the GTX-200 series coming out soon for desktops and it sucks how laptops are one step behind desktops. It also sucks how the 200 series are gonna be huge chips, which minimizes the chance that they'll be available for laptops.

I bought my lappy today - It will apparently take about 14 days to complete the order. Do you think the new cards will start appearing in that time?

Well according to the articles, Nvidia said they will come out this summer, so which ever month in the summer they mean, that's it. The announcement was made for no greater than the 9600m-GT, so nothing is known about the 9800m-GTX at the moment.

Don't gawk at the 40%. That could be them talking about the low-to-mid-range parts performance increase over the abysmal 8400s.

from the benchmarks posted on Notebook Check, it looks like their top "performance" GPU, the 9650M GS, is living up to the hype over the 8600M GT. While I've seen some posts guessing that there will be less of a percentage gain in the "enthusiast" class, Nvidia hasn't officially announced those yet, so we'll see.

Based on the numbers the GT200 is looking to give, nVidia *needs* some good press.

I agree, they didnt say 40% over a certain card. The first thig that jumped into my mind was the SLI 8800's but the article is a bit ambiguous, not naming a specific card.
