The RV770 chip already has some power optimisations and it can be ready for notebook use, but the current issue is that ATI’s new chip with 800 Shaders tends to get rather hot.
Radeon HD 4850 gets hot and the mobile version will definitely end up with more modest clocks and it will only fit in quite thick desktop replacement notebook
Mobile ATI RV770 arrives in Q3 or Q4
