Centrino is the pentium m processor with the intel wireless card. Its just a fancy name. If you have just teh pentium m and a different wireless card, then its not really centrino. But who cares?

Sonoma actually refers to the platform, being Centrino version two essentially.

This consists of:
Cpu: Dothan Pentium-M
Chipset: is "Alviso" @ 533mhz
WiFi: 1 of 3 Intel Wireless card.

So, essentially you have ... both =)

Was gonna say exactly that. Dothan and Sonoma refer to too different things altoghter. Next chip is Yonah, which I believe is a dual core Dothan.

Sonoma is just a type of Dothan. It's the Dothan CPU that supports a 533MHz FSB.

Here ya go.
"next generation mobile-platform Napa that inlcudes the dual-core chip Yonah as well as upgrades to the graphics and wireless chipsets"

So Napa is to Yonah as Sonoma is to Dothan.

Napa and Sonoma are Chip Sets.
Yonah and Dothan are Moble Processors (Pentium M)

They are not chips in so much, as the are the chips logic core. It is still a Pentium M chip, but it has a Dothan core, or a Banias core and now Yohan. Which I believe is 2 Dothan cores on 1 chip.
