While I see some progress, I don´t see that. What exactly are you referring to? Dothan is @ 21W at 1.8 Ghz!?!

For mobile operation the maximum powerstate is pretty irrelevant. To compare notebook CPUs powerspecs @800MHz (A-64) and @600MHz (Banias, as i dont have Dothan-specs) is what gives a better basis to estimate battery runtimes.

TDP of CG-Stepping is down to 13W here, including some things not included for the Banias specs here (which is below 10W).

Presently, mobile CG-Stepping does not yet match Pentium-M, let alone Centrino. Here is why: http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=8374.

But it is coming way closer. LV-A64 on mobile chipsets and integrated grafics will probably match Pentium M.
