Default Nvidia GT206 and GT212

Quote:
From what we can see in the leaked slide, the GT206 will be based on 55nm and the GT212 on 40nm. Pending the validity of this projection chart, the GT206 is slated to replace the GTX260gtx260 around the first quarter 2009, then with the GT212 replacing the GTX280gtx280 closer to the second quarter 2009.

So if this is true then Nvidia is taking their confusing nameing system even further. Because how is dropping the X and lowering the number suppose to say "hey I'm a upgrade".

Well are these not going to be the actual model names then? Are they the codenames or model series... Because the actual model names of the cards their replacing are GTX260 and GTX280.
