"Pineview" is the codename for Intel's successor to the current models of the Atom processor and will feature an integrated memory controller and graphics processor, akin to the upcoming Intel "Clarkdale" generation of processors.
One of Intel's first product to feature the "Pineview" Atom will be the D510MO mini-ITX motherboard, which features the dual core Atom D510 processor, two DIMM slots, one mini-PCI Express slot and a PCI slot for expansion purposes. SATA ports are present and the only thing missing is a digital video output, as only a VGA port is available.
The new Atom proecessors will also be available in more single core models with the first one being the Atom D410, followed by the N450. Both processors will be clocked at 1.66GHz and feature 512KB of L2 cache while the D510 doubles on the cache and number of cores.
All three processors have 64 bit extensions enabled, a first for Atom N series processors. Enhanced Speedstep(EIST) is only activated in Atom N series processors.
All processors feature the GMA 3150 graphics core but not much details are available currently - it will possibly be based PowerVR IP.

There is a very useful overview of all Pineview based motherboards at:
