Just where is this 3.2 Ghz PPC? M$ is famous for pre-announcing stuff that is ready to "freeze" the marketplace - is IBM following suit?

By all accounts the Cell processor SHOULD be a barn burner, but as evidenced by Sun and HP before them, a new processor is tricky to bring to market on time. Can IBM deliver? That's the million dollar question.
