3rd quarter is the best estimate I've seen.
All of the Xeon based on the 32nm architecture are out. I am running two X5650's. You can get a e5620, e5630, or e5640.
Anthing with 56XX in it is based on the 32nm tech.
I have an X5660 and it is a great chip, I have been keeping vtt below 1.4 and vcore below 1.47 for benching.

I believe that a discounted Xeon 36XX series Gulftown processor will also be released with the Core i7-970 in Q3. This should be the W3670 model.
I would expect an end of September date also and a $550 - $600 price tag. I'll take a few.
I wait w/anticipation.

EDIT:nevermind its seems to just be a downclocked 980x and pure speculation as to performance
