Mobile Socket Motherboards

[jgigz]

Not to long ago I replaced my asus f3sv laptop because the backlight died. Everything else on it is fine and i'm wondering if theres a good place to buy possibly a matx or miniITX motherboard that supports mobile chipsets.

More specifically i need a socket P mini ITX board preferably, but mATX or ATX will do if they exist.

Anyone know of a place that sells them (i checked egg but they are "no longer available")

Thanks in advance

Logicsupply has mobile-on-desktop boards, but you will pay a premium for them:

Thanks for the link. I've found some other sites as well that carry 1 or 2 socket P motherboards as well, and their all charging ~250ish for the boards. I didn't realize they would be so expensive, or is socket P for mini-itx still new and needs some time before the price comes down?

You won't see any significant price drop. These are lower volume boards for a niche market, so less competition, higher prices.
