AMD HAS AN interesting R600 Radeon HD launch plan, which could backfire in a rather spectacular manner.
The plan is to invite close to 200 hacks to the Sheraton complex in Tunis, and throw them into the mix with a bunch of AMD and ATI executives.
The problem is that company then plans a three-week silence period in the run up to launch. Nothingh from teh shindig should be posted until May 14th, our sources reveal. In today's world of immediate information, the three weeks in question sound very weird.
We learned that this could be due to late delivery of 65nm RV610LE/610XT/630Pro/630XT chips, but everything should be available in massive quantities. Of course, if there isn't for another mysterious delay that seems to happen regulary to AMD crew these days.
Anyway, just to let you know.
