We learned
that ATI didn’t have much choice than to give away a few R600 cards to its partners.
The confidence of ATI’s partners is really shaken and this was the only way to
cure it.
A prototype of R600 will be shown with usual suspects and I would expect to see some picture of this card until the end of the week.
There are
two choices that DAAMIT plans to show 9.5 inch card and the second one is that
it will show 12.5 inch card that many developers have for weeks or months now. Whatever
happens it wont launch at Cebit, the launch is scheduled for early May time.
