The move to 90nm and what we don't know about the chip is going to tell.
There's some speculation if 64-bit is being tested in the chip.
Taking this step by itself may seem dumb to some, but I ask if you remember the same was said about the first P4s.

The new Pentium 4 Prescott is a real disappointment. They claim lengthen the pipe so it will scale better. What good is it? It just kills the performance. They should have just went with the other changes like more cache and 90 nm die and other fine tuning. The Pentium 4 Extreme Edition based on the Northwood core looks good except for the price. Intel is nuts with the price of The Pentium 4 Extreme Edition. What do you think? http://www.tomshardware.com/cpu/20040201/index.html
