When do we think we'll start to see pascal based laptops?

as the title suggests I just thought I'd start this thread for people to post any useful info/leaks and rumors that come out based on laptops with pascal gpus, some rumors I've heard the beginning of August we'll hear some concrete info, the one that I'm more interested in is the 1060 if it can get close to desktop 1060 performance runs cool due to low power it'll easily drive a 1080p 60hz screen and for a good solid laptop of around £1000 with this gpu would be a fantastic laptop as it'll beat out a 980m by a fair bit whilst using less power and costing less, what about anyone else, are you looking to pick up a pascal based laptop?
 
Haven't looked at the details - are they actually Pascal? nVidia has a habit with laptop GPUs of releasing a refresh of the previous generation core under the new generation numbering before actual mobile GPUs on the new core :|

Yeah they've done this quite a few times, so you have to be careful.

Also I think I'm right in saying when the 750m came out, there were two versions, both called 750m. One was still Kepler, rebranded 650m, and one was Maxwell (laptop 750 Ti). The Maxwell one consumed less power AND was faster, and you could only tell them apart by looking at the clockspeed or something.
 
Something like that - there is the GTX675m which I have that is actually a Fermi core (knew before I bought) and the GTX675mx which is Kepler.
 
I was under the impression the next Nvidia laptop GPU's would not be M chips but full fledged desktop GPU's considering how efficient the Pascal line are.
