The AMD Phenom™ Processor will be here by the end of 2007!

It will have four cores and will have a range of speed of 1.8-2.3 Ghz at first.

I can't wait till DDR3 gets cheaper. Right now it costs $400-500 to get 1GB. DDR2 costs $40-50 for the same amount with a speed of 800Mhz. DDR3 has speeds of 1066-1333Mhz. Look at this bench marking site comparing the two.

After reading the above article you will notice that DDR3 has barely any improvement on DDR2. Someone should test them in a 64bit Windows Vista computer and see if there is any improvement then.

There is another nice technology that is coming called bluetooth 3.0 which is supposed to greatly speed up the transfer of data wirelessly to other bluetooth devices. Right now with version 2 the speed is 3Mbps. Well when the new version 3 comes out that speed will be increased to 480Mbps which is like firewire and USB2.0!

I like this article about the 480Mbps speed

The current standard version 2 uses the 2.4Ghz band. Here is a quote from the following site: "In other developments, the SIG said it continues to work with the WiMedia Alliance to incorporate 6GHz-band ultra-wideband technology into the 3.0 version of the specification, tentatively dubbed High Speed Bluetooth. The 480+Mbps spec is due by the end of the year, about six months behind what the SIG called an aggressive schedule announced last year.
