    Yes, I am hoping that someone who upgrades their m1330 does a comparison between the 2 processors in their m1330 with all other components the same. I've read in some site that penryn can provide around 10-15% more battery life while idle.

    Mine is already in the boxing stage too. their web site say it should ship out on the 18th and get to me on the 19th. So I will update you guys once I get it.

    Theres has been a few who have posted their finds already. While some were happy some still had that dreaded whine if thats what you meant. Battery time did not take much note on that.
