No Fermi GPUs until late March 2010?

HardOCP claims NVIDIA is trying to get Fermi desktop graphics cards out by the last week of February, but the site believes the GPU maker will miss this mark and may have to delay the chip to late March 2010 or perhaps even April 2010.
It is being rumored that the first "Fermi build kits" were supposed to be prepped to go out to AIBs but NVIDIA missed the mark on having its Fermi tech ready to pass off to builders. We also heard the "Gemini" name being batted around as well and this seems to be connected to a dual GPU Fermi card. We still feel as though NVIDIA is aiming for getting Fermi shipping by the last week of February, but still think it will miss this mark.
The site also heard that "Gemini" may be the codename for the dual-GPU version of Fermi.
