During yesterday's earnings call, Intel interim-CEO Bob Swan
reiterated that 10nm Ice Lake based systems will be available in volume before the end of this year:
Our 10 nanometer yields continue to improve and Ice Lake remains on track to be in volume systems on retail shelves for the 2019 holiday selling season. In Q4, we also made important progress in AI, 5G and autonomous driving. For artificial intelligence, we saw accelerating adoption of OpenVINO, our open source toolkit for neural network optimization and the rapid deployment of AI based computer vision.
Later during the call, Intel engineering boss Murthy Renduchintala chimed in that he thinks 10nm is looking better now than at the last earnings call.
