Taiwanese notebook manufacturers provide details about Banias pricing

Their pricing will depend not only on clock rate, but also on presence/absence of wireless single- (LAN 802.11) and dual-range protocols.

Intel Banias and WLAN package will provisionally cost:

• 1.3 GHz chip — $200 — $230
• 1.4 GHz chip — $290 — $315
• 1.5 GHz chip — $420 — $445
• 1.6 GHz chip — $630 — $660

In 4Q 2003 Intel plans to announce Banias or rather Dothan already with 1.8 GHz clock rate and 0.09-micron process technology. According to Taiwan sources, Dothan will require less power.
