FUD Zilla has some details about the pricing of Intel's upcoming Pine-trail D Atom chips, which are slated to arrive in Q1 2010.
Dual-core Atom D510 clocked at 1.66 GHz, with 1MB of cache on BGA437 will sell for $63 at launch. The price is higher comparing to $43 that Intel wants for currently selling dual-core Atom 330, but D510 has a GPU and the rest of the Northbridge in the CPU.

The new single-core Atom D410 that works at 1.66GHz and has 512KB cache will sell for $43, again a massive price increase from $29 that Intel today wants for desktop Atom 230, but again, D410 has the Northbridge inside of the CPU that kind of can justify the higher price.
