Dual-core at $43 price
While the single-core Atom 230 is selling for $29 a piece, the dual core brother will be introduced on September 21st and it will be selling for $43.
The Atom 230 + motherboards are selling for $58 wholesale price and $43 for dual-core Atom gets Intel dangerously close to the Celeron price range.
A $43 will get you dual-core Atom 330 with 1.6GHz core speed, 533FSB speed and 1MB cache speed (two times 512KB per core). It fits the same boards as single-core Atom and it uses the same BGA 437 socket.
As you can see realistically this is a Q4 product rather than Q3, as Intel originally planed. The answer to your possible question is yes, Intel will be late.
