I suspect we'll be seeing AMD lineup using 8 cores vs 4 cores, even if than means 4 modules. The AMD cores within the modules are certainly more core like, than HT.
At the end of the day, the prices will be set based on workloads and how it copes with them. If a 4 module/8 core AMD chip (at say 2.5ghz), can deal with the same workload as a 4 core(8ht) Intel chip (at 2ghz), then that will be it's price window (speed values for arguments sake etc).
