It seems the long announced low voltage C2D have arrived:

Intel Quietly Adds Low-Voltage Core 2 Duo Chips into Lineup.
Intel Speeds Up Low-Voltage Dual-Core Microprocessors

The new mobile Intel Core 2 Duo microprocessors L7000-series have thermal design power (TDP) of 17W, which is two times lower compared to typical Core 2 Duo chips that typically consume 34W, which is quite a lot for processors designed for laptops.

Still, the new products are not the most economical offerings from Intel Corp. Intel currently also sells Intel Core Duo U2400 (1.06GHz, 2MB unified L2 cache, 533MHz PSB) processor that typically consumes 9W as well as two ultra low-voltage Celeron M processor models 423 (single-core “Yonah”, 1.07GHz, 1MB cache, 533MHz PSB) and 373 (single-core “Dothan”, 1.0GHz, 512KB cache, 400MHz PSB) with 5.5W TDP. In addition, there are Intel Core Duo L-series products that have TDP of about 15W.

It will interesting to see how these things overclock.

wow... nice maybe my new X6800 is a mobile in disguise (see coretemp label and temps under prime95 small ffts load)

room temp between 27.9-28.8C right now

1.2 volt for a quadcore at almost 3 Ghz running full speed is not so bad.
