If you can hold off your notebook buying decision, then wait for the Merom chips to be adopted by the companies. Currently there is Pentium M, Core Duo and AMD's Turion. I don't think you should go in for the Turion, the centrino is a much more stable platform.

Solo/Duo depends on what apps you are using but choose Duo over Solo if you have some extra cash cause Windows Vista would definitely benefit from the extra core.
