that's why i mentioned the Turion64...

i doubt about the price, amd products tend to be much cheaper.
the Turions is at the same level as the P-M when it comes to power 
consumption
The Turion64 ML at 1800Mhz, has a TDP 25watts...
The Dothan Intel specs with 21 Watts...

While in my personal experience AMD always stated a very high TDP while 
the real usage is _much_ lower (e.g. winchester 3500+ TDP 67 real usage 
is 39)
