With Intel now integrating graphics processing and the memory controller into the CPU packaging, the Ion 2 is expected to serve much more like a discrete GPU than the Ion chipset of today. Plans to support VIA processors (http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/12/nvidia-ion-2-still-on-track-for-this-year/) are also still firmly in place, should you wish to experience the improved graphics processing outside of the realm of Lord Intel.NVIDIA Ion 2 already ordered up by Acer?
