I have a PB2k@500Mhz (the so-called pismo).
saw radeon mobility on monday at ATI.
anyone knows if I could swap my ATI 128 mobility with it?
if someone gets such a card please report about performance too.

I have got a PowerBook (Firewire) and I think the ATI graphic chip is not upgradable as it's soldered on the motherboard.
If you are not serious about 3D performance, then I think the ATI mobility 128 is enough. I have no problem to connect the powerbook to an external monitor/TV.

The ATI chip is soldered onto the motherboard. Soldered on as in "attached by molten metal." It's not replaceable or upgradeable!
When they say "modular," they mean that a company can use the new chip without redesigning the board. It doesn't mean it's user-exchangable (or even factory-exchangable).

The ATI graphic chip on the new PowerBook G4 is also soldered on the motherboard.
Hope that Apple can upgrade it to the new Mobility Radeon.

Doesn�t it seem more likely that Apple will go with a niDiva card when they integrate AGP x4 into the TiPB motherboard? (next winter?) Visit www.nidiva.com if you doubt that �the switch� is final.
