With a March launch period which means the 3GB memory IC is already in hand because there's no way the laptop manufacturers would be able to hit that otherwise.

If the date is to believed and March is the end of the Q1. Samsung has not released it's 24Gb chips public yet, though they have said they plan to announce them in Febuary.


The 50xx series has already launched. Unless you have a handy time machine that lets you get a supply from the future then send them to nVidia in the past, don't expect to them them until mid cycle refresh. Now AMD hasn't yet announced it's next set, and it could very well be because they delayed them to use the newer memory, who knows.

What time machine are you using that the 5060/Ti has been even announced let alone launched?

The 5090 mobile has been announced with a launch month and laptop manufacturers already have models announced with them.
 
Since the B580 was released and promptly sold out at MSRP I put email notifications on at a couple retailers for them.
Since then I have had more than a couple restock notifications at MSRP of $259-$269 and every time I had time to cart and enter my info and buy.
That tells me that thousands of them are shipping.
So yes, if someone has been shopping for one they have most likely had opportunities to buy it, in the U.S. anyway.
Like any new release under a high demand it will be a while before they are stocked and regularly available off the shelf.
But that is the same for any new GPU. When the 5060/5070 is released they won't be readily available for a good while as well.



Because you can't buy a B580 for $250. You can get a B570 for that.
