ASUS Eee Pad Slider making the jump from Tegra 2 to Atom Z670?

Last we heard, ASUS’ Eee Pad Slider would pack a Tegra 2 processor just like its counterpart, the Eee Pad Transformer . There’s now some pretty strong evidence suggesting that might not be the case, however, with none other than Intel letting slip that the Slider would actually pack its brand new Atom Z670 processor instead of NVIDIA’s silicon. That evidence you see above cropped up on Intel’s press page following its announcement for the new Atom processor, although it’s since been removed — suggesting that it was either a colossal mistake or, more likely, a reveal that was a bit too premature for ASUS’ liking.
