Intel released the successor to the Centrino chipset. It is called Sonoma and is based on the i915 desktop chipset with features like:
Intel Graphics Media Processor 900
533FSB with DDR2 (up to 2GB), and PCI-E support
High Definition Audio
SATA
Intel WiFi Support
Power Optimized FSB
Intel has kept the brand "Centrino" - Notebooks running 533 Mhz FSB use Sonoma, 400 FSB means the "old" Centrino.
Also new is support for DDR2 and PCI-Express.
