We can remember that Nvidia was persistent at the Kal El announcement that the devices will hit retail as soon as August. Our Far East sources are quite confident that this won’t happen and that it will launch at later date, probably when it gets colder in the northern hemisphere.
Nvidia doesn’t want to talk about Kal-El, but it did release some basic specification back in January, but at this time, it is not ready to share more. Some more Tegra 2 devices will launch before the end of the year and Kal-El a chip that might end up as Tegra 3, should also come soon, just not in August.
Different sources suggested that Kal-El definitely comes in Q3 2011 that for the normal world ends with September 30th, but have in mind that Nvidia’s Q3 ends more month later. This can give us some ideas about the latest possible launch date. One thing is certain, the launch date should happen much before Thanksgiving and the rest of the shopping spree to follow.
