FUD Zilla heard AMD is prepping to launch Broadway in November, this will be one of the first DirectX 11 GPUs for notebooks.

AMD is finishing its notebook versions of its Evergreen DirectX 11 generation and hopes to get a lot of design wins. This will be ATI's first serious 40nm chip that they can ship in volume and if all goes well they should start shipping in November time.

Broadway is a high-end discrete notebook chip, initial samples and volume samples have already been ship and the mass production will start in November. This does not mean that you will be able to buy a DirectX 11, Broadway-based notebook in November, but they will do their best.

And a year later Nvidia will lazily decide to add their own versions...

AMD is way, way in front of the DX11 game.
