Theoretically speaking, Ivy Bridge has now been announced and will begin shipping these coming days.

While in the beginning only the high-end i5 and i7 processors will appear, I'm guessing some kick-ass HTPC's will soon be built.

Anyhow, anybody aware of where (if at all) one of these babies can be pre-ordered? I can't find anything yet, but I must confess I did not dig too deep either...

Thanks....

Most the the CPUs that would be appropriate for HTPC duty (such as the i3) won't be released until the end of the year.

hope it will give iNTEL some time to fix their 24p issue by then.
