Later, this is for back-to-school.

With the 8800GTX Mobile just at 96 SPs, the 3870 should be able competition.

Well with notebooks its more difficult due to very tight thermal and power budgets, so the internal layout may have to be adjusted/tweaked, etc... Its not really a drop-in for the OEMs

Stick with a Mobile 8800. Will most likely not match it.

Now now, lets not be hasty. From what I've seen, the mobile nvidia cards tend to be heavily cut down from their desktop counterparts (example: the 8800GTX Go is really a GTS G80) whereas the ATI mobility tend to be pretty damn close. Since the 3870 trades blows with the GTS G80, the two mobility will likely be very very close.
