Mobile PIII vs. Mobile P4

[singhss]

Anyone know which is better a P3 1.2GHz or the new P4 1.6GHz. I hear Intel is increasing the FSB speed in the P4's but are decreasing the abount of data going thru it or some crazy stuff like that. How do the 2 compare to each other? Can anyone give the pro's and cons of both?
thanks

That's not what I heard
Not sure what temps those P4-Ms are reaching, but P4@1.6GHz would beat P3@1.2GHz, never saw actual benchmarks, however, at least not of laptops.
And they using Northwood core for mobiles, 0.13um core, less heat dissipation, 512kb L2 cache ... nice
