how much better will the 7600 be compared to the 6600? Would it be a huge upgrade?

it should be rougly equivalent to a desktop 6800gt's performance. maybe a bit better, dpends on the number of pipes and the clock speed. hopefully they release it using the new 90nm process so we get some killer batterylife.
