Difference between 725 and 725A Processors?

Not sure if this is the right forum but I guess my question applies, so here goes;

I have an HP laptop DV1410US that has a Celeron M 380 (1.6Ghz) processor. I want to swap it out with a Pentium processor so I can overclock it via a pin mod. My Celeron is pin modded currently so I know the mobo has the right chipset but the Celerons do not support the speedstep feature. Anyway, I believe that a Pentium 725 (SL7EG) is the processor I want. In my ebay searches for a used one I keep running across Pentium 725A (SL89T) processors. Now, Intel has a bunch of info on SL7EG processors but absolutely nothing (that I can find) on SL89T processors. From the info (don't know if it's reliable) I can find however, they both seem to have the same specs so I don't understand why there are different designations.

Can anyone tell me if these processors are different, if so what the difference is and whether they are interchangeable? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks a bunch!
