The current 8700m GT, draws 35W. Not 25W. That'd be the 8600GT at 25W.
The 8800M GTX according to what we have herd, apperently also draws 35W. Though we will have to wait until we actualy get it to prove this.
That said, your last line is still true. The MBP has a ~25w limit(as, the X1600 is 22w as i recall[prev gen...]... 8600gt 22-25w depending on ram config...) it has no ability to manage another 10w, much less the larger size the chip configuration will probobly have, and the heat that the aditional 10w draw will displace.
But who knows, prehaps a 17in MB, it wouldnt shock me. I mean, suitible for graphics design bit much?

It is just a theoretical discussion. It can be done, but they will never do it, because of the price.

Sorry Macs aren't cheap when it comes to Bang Per Buck ratio.
Who's looking forward to 8Gb of RAM, 500Gb HDD and nVidia 8800m in MBPs ?
