Many thanks for posting this list and links.

For obvious reasons i don't comment on what second sources speculate but strictly base commentary on what Intel says, i.e. in the IDF slides.

Intel says all what you post. But it explicitely attributes these features to "Intels Next Generation Micro-Architecure**" and are well covered by the footnotes on slides 9, 10 and 13 for anybody making anything else out of it.

On the pipeline thing, current Pentium-M is Dothan, not Yonah.

The 32-bit to 64-bit transition alone already makes it a new core.
This would imply your premise EMT64 needed new silicon as well, am I right?
