Did you also note the various comments over the past few days that Nehalem seems to be ready sooner than expected? I think Q4 was a conservative schedule that they will not have any trouble meeting-- they could probably start in Q3 if they wanted to.
i was talking about Q1 and Q2, i dont think nehalem is that ready, but it is shaping up quite nicely though
Maybe some chips are in awesome condition and they are trying to send a strong signal they are ready for it, and AMD is not.
altough the initial results look really good, i just hold off til i see some more meaningfull benchmarks
