Freescale (Motorola's chip division) has launched the 90nm G4, and is planning a dual core version for next year. The chip is faster -- over 1.5GHz -- and cooler than the old chip, but it is also pin compatible.

In reply to Comment 6 (Andreas Wolf):
>And how do you want to connect this VIA VT8237 to the CPU, i.e. which bus?

PCI using a RapidIO to PCI bridge.

Better solution would be an AMD 8111 via a RapidIO to HyperTransport bridge.

I'd guess anyone actually putting this chip on a board will connect up via PCI Express which will be in wider use by then and thus be more avilable.
