I have heard that AMD Shanghai will be available in Nov 2008. Does
someone
know the pricing and performance info and how is it compared with
Barcelona?
Are there some informal comparisons of Shanghai vs Nehalem?

You can expect to see better performance in SPEC_CPU for Shanghai vs.
Barcelona when comparing identical clockspeeds. But of course the
increased clockspeed ist a big argument for Shanghai (or the same
clockspeed with less energy consumption).
And Shanghai has some more features like faster memory and HT3 in
some of the later revisions i hope...
Yes, I think HT3 *must* be. It was declared for Barcelona, but really
is supported now AFAIK only for desktop chips.
