2.4 surely much more faster then 1.6
centrino strong point is just power saving and build in wifi .. nothing much interesting |

i think centrino's wifi is not built into the chip but the motherboard?
u obviosly haven't been doing ur homework eh?
@sanj
i wouldnt bet on that...
the way i look at it, the prices will start to drop when intel releases 'dollarino' 
wether the p4-m is 1.7ghz or 2.4ghz, it'll still run at 1.2ghz when it is unplugged from the outlet unless they start installing this in sbc 
but yes, p4-m is much more powerful than centrino multimedia wise.
ps. i still dont get wtf is diff between 512 n 1024 cache, care to explaiin?
i know i should wait for bro to answer this but a pcmcia wifi card will cost u around rm200 whereas a 'minipci' combo (modem + wifi) card comes as an upgrade option (if applicable)
oh, take a look at this www.airzed.com
the promo looks interesting to me but if what our taukay said is right (airzed uses streamyx), its gonna be a pain in the a** |

The new processors used in the centrino package is called Banias not P4 or P4M. Centrino is not the name of the processor, its the package. Instead of the standard 512kb cache on the normal P4 and P4M, the Banias has 1024kb cache !! The cache is a temporarry tempat simpanan for imformation travelling between the processor and SDRAM, DDR RAM or what eva. That is why I am stuck as to which darn processor I shud get !! Hope, I enlightened U
BTW, wtf is sbc ???

@virawan: no thanx mate.....
@sanjeev: prices aren't gonna drop much in 2 mths time....go get the stuff now if i were u!!! if u wanna wait, then it's gonna be 4ever coz prices alwiz drops in the long run as they introduce more and better chips.....no point in waiting......buy now then save to buy newer one later......it's the same with handphones man!!
internal cache 512 vs 1026 not gonna make a helluva diff if u r running p4 with anything more than 256mb ram......besides, the new HDD coming with any current notebook is >20GB and WinXP handles the memory swap issues pretty nicely......

wow..great
hope to see alex there
eh....i just called telstar sdn bhd, tot they have tonnes of stock for mca-25 coz they were selling T310 and T300 separately and the MCA-25 cannot sell, was thinking of getting a couple from them at maybe RM200 for my frens, i called them just now and they said the whole stock (think maybe around 20-50 MCA-25s) was taken by some other fella, only at RM150 each brand new with warranty! shit!! should have acted fast!
nipple pointer no use la, coz got only 1, usually have to use both hands at the same time baru symmetrical, hard to train skills with laptop though
