edit: guys remember most of these are just performance previews, full in depth reviews are sure to come out next week once NDA on technical stuff is dropped!
edit 2: Please keep talks to reviews/previews and not needless fanboi arguing! Thanks!
edit 3: Looking at some newer links, the RV770 is confirmed to be: 800 SP's, 40 TMU's, 956 Million Transistors in 256mm^2 die
Looks like ATI realized that partners were already selling the 4850's in Asia and Europe and some in the US as well so they decided to allow the release of some information:

Basically whats happened is our partners have started selling the products and in some cases reviewers that we have and have not sampled have already bought and received the product and published stories. Were not able to control the situation anymore so we need to give the media the ability to publish info.
