Andrew, the P4-M runs at 1.2 GHz when in battery-saving mode:

No benchmarks are available in this mode, but you can estimate the performance hit.

By the way, I thought this statement of yours from May 2001 was pretty interesting:

Funny how hardly any Athlon-based laptops have shown up between then and now.

Andrew - re: "Does anyone know how fast the P4-M runs when on batteries? "

A Dell Inspiron 8200 went 2 Hours 29 minutes in battery mode under PCMAG's testing:

" Granted, putting the Dell Inspiron 8200 up against a machine with a desktop-class 2.2-GHz Pentium 4 chip could be seen as an unfair fight. But the 1.7-GHz P4-M and the 845MP chip set in the Inspiron 8200 more than held their own. While it couldn't outpace the 2.2-GHz desktop chip in the PC Notebook model on the Business Winstone 2001 tests in best-performance mode (conducted with the notebooks plugged into AC power), it did keep up or win on the other tests. And at 2:29, its battery life was very good. "
