As far as I know they were still working on it, only prototypes exist. It was intended for release in the beginning of 2001. If I'm not mistaken.

Maybe they were not intending to do a paper launch, but have the product fully ready upon annoancement?

Also, it was an OEM product for low-end computers, it wasn't really meant for the retail market like the VSA-100.

hmmm, launch when ready is a goot idear

but not direct low-end
the DDR memory was good for marketing vs the GeForce cards
for low-end 3dfx also have the velocity brand, okay mabe it should be lunched as velocity 500, but we will never know
