Wave, which was showing off its wares in the exhibition area of the forum, will offer secure so-called "Embassy" services for notebooks, desktops and server machines when the silicon becomes available, the first likely to be with the introduction of Intel's Springdale chipset. http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=7988
The first implementations of TPM appear to be slated for Intel's own motherboards using its Springdale chipsets, but whether third party motherboard vendors will implement it as yet remains unclear.
Atmel, Infineon, ST Micro and NatSemi can already provide TPM 1.1 silicon, and it will be built into some Intel desktop mobos and into the notebook reference design. But in May, Intel will release its 865 TPM platform - that's Springdale, so it will be built into those products.. http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=7942
Update: Intel's Springdale appears in new PCs
IBM, Gateway, Dell, and Acer America were among the vendors introducing PCs with the new technologies. Most of the PCs will use Intel's Springdale chip set, now known as the 865G.
IBM's ThinkCentre S50 and M50 are designed for corporate customers considering enterprise-wide PC replacements or new deployments, said Dilip Bhatia, worldwide segment marketing manager for IBM. http://www.infoworld.com/article/03/05/21/HNspringdale_1.html
