AMD is undeniably excited about its Llano APUs and the latest pieces of the puzzle suggest that Computex 2011, may be the launch theatre for availability beginning in Q3 (July).
Divulged morsels of information suggest that, as per the table below, up to six jewels in the 32nm A-series Llano crown may get an audience. Featuring DirectX 11 Radeon HD 6000-series graphics capabilities, the dual-core E2-3250 and A4-3350 will take up assignments with HD 6370 and HD 6410 class graphics, respectively, whilst the quad-core A6-3450, A6-3450P, A8-3550 and A8-3550P iterations will take a bow harnessing either HD 6530 or HD 6550 graphics, depending on model.

Packaged for AMD's FM1 socket, Husky Llano will adopt dual-channel DDR3 1,866MHz memory controllers - with the exception of the E2-3250 - which will be kitted out with DDR3 1,600MHz instead. Of the first launches, the E2-3250 (1MB Cache), A4-3350 (2MB cache), A6-3450 (4MB cache) and A8-3550 (4MB cache) will all fit nicely into a 65W TDP envelope, with the A6-3450P (4MB cache) and A8-3550P (4MB cache) going up to the 100W size.
Once Q3 launches are out of the way, AMD appears to be targeting Q4 for up to five new solutions - the dual-core A4-3360 and quad-core A6-3460, A6-3460P, A8-3560 and A8-3560P models.
