One think I think we do know for certain is Microsoft isn't worried, or it would have delayed the Xbox 720's announcement. I think they are completely confidant with what they are going to be announcing in less than 2 months. It should be exciting.

Latency from GDDR5 on a CPU is a PC issue, while it's still an issue in a console configuration, it's much, much less of an issue, much less of an issue than microsofts solution, but the direction theyre going with the console sees a focus shifting away from hardcore games anyway.
It could very well just be that Microsoft knows it's too late to change and is going to make the best of what they have, lets face it if microsoft stalled now, the first thing every single person would say is 'sony got them scared'.
