also there were rumors that the i7 920 is going EOL after 870's arrival!!
I've been hearing the i7 920 EOL for long now, but recently updated roadmaps shows it won't happen this year up to H2 next year. And if there'll be a S1156 i7 to cause EOL on i7 920 then it would be i7 860, because it is clocked higher than 920 and at the same price-level.
