Seagate 1.5TB hard disks

On July 10, Seagate announced they would begin shipping their new
1.5TB desktop hard disks this August.

Their US products page,
http://www.seagate.com/www/en-us/products/desktops/barracuda_hard_drives/barracuda_7200.11
/
has details of the following new drives (in addition to the standard
250GB/platter ones):

320GB, one platter
640GB, two platters
1000GB, three platters
1500GB, four platters

Their UK products page,
http://www.seagate.com/www/en-gb/products/desktops/barracuda_hard_drives/barracuda_7200.11
/
lists only the first two of these.

The 320GB single platter drive is already for sale on ebuyer:
http://www.ebuyer.com/product/142569  (UKP 44.75)

where it is quite a bit more expensive than the two platter drive:
http://www.ebuyer.com/product/115418  (UKP 37.01)

Am I right in assuming that it will still be several months before
these things are available in any great numbers, and OcUK are being a
bit optimistic (and underhand) in selling them on pre-order already:

Also, why didn't they call this new range of drives "7200.12"?
