Chinese website HKEPC claims Intel is going to slash Core Duo prices on May 28:
According to a Taiwanese motherboard manufacturer, the dual-core mobile chips will drop one notch in price, with the 2.16 GHz T2600 diving from $637 to $423, the 2.0 GHz T2500 going from $423 to $294, and the 1.83 GHz T2400 dropping from $294 to $241. Meanwhile, HKEPC says the $241 1.66 GHz T2300 will be replaced by a $209 T2300E, which will have the same specifications but lack support for Intel's Virtualization Technology. Still at $209, Intel allegedly plans to scrap its single-core 1.66 GHz Core Solo T1300 and replace it with a faster 1.83 GHz T1400 model.
