AMD's Q4 Roadmap

We've been told about Intel's plan for their processors for the next 4 years. So what AMD's response is? Revealing their plan for the last three month of 2008, that is.
New AMD processors are in bound starting on October 8. AMD will introduce the Athlon X2 5050e Brisbane based CPU running at 2.6 GHz and Phenom X3 8850 running at 2.5 GHz.
In November, AMD will come up with Ultra Value Client (UVC) solutions that are direct OEM products only. They also will announce a new Lima based 1.6 GHz Athlon X2 2650e together with a 1.5 GHz Athlon X2 3250e.
And last in Desember, AMD will announced several Phenom processors. The Toliman based Phenom X3 8850 @ 2.5 GHz will be unveiled. This processor will be multiplier unlocked. A Deneb based Phenom quad core, Phenom X4 running at 3.0 GHz and 2.8 GHz respectively will also be announced and will hit store early January.
There are too many processors to choose nowadays. And the model numbering Intel and AMD use is no help either.
