I thought the Pentium and Celeron families were being subsumed into Bay Trail architecture. Is this all just about naming then? I was totally unaware that there would be Haswell versions of Celeron and Pentium going forward and rather assumed these might be i3 parts we were talking about. Apparently I have it all wrong.
Yeah, it's all messy right now. There are Haswell Celeron and Pentium chips, and then there are Silvermont Celeron and Pentium chips. The laptops with Bay Trail will have SoCs branded Celeron N2000 and Pentium N3000, and desktops will have Celeron J1000 and Pentium J2000 SoCs. But there will still be Haswell Pentium and Celeron chips as well. Here's the full list of the mobile 22nm Haswell SKUs (minus the i7-4930MX as I cut it off at 47W TDP):

I think I've gone cross-eyed from all the alphabet-naming soup going on.wallysb01 - Tuesday, September 17, 2013 - link
I don't think Desktop Haswell Celerons will exist, what you're seeing are the mobile Haswell Celerons.
