I just noticed that Fujitsu is now shipping (http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=22-153-020&depa=0) SATA interface laptop hard drives. These are dual-interface, so they should also be compatible with current IDE interfaces. If I understand correctly, SATA interfaces for laptops will become available with the upcoming mobile chipset update (http://www.google.com/search?q=intel+alviso+sata), Alviso, from Intel that will work with the current Dothan CPUs and give them a front-side bus boost from the current 400MHz to 533MHz.
Alviso may also bring (http://www.google.com/search?q=intel+alviso+pci+express) PCI-Express to laptops.
