Need help picking out a Shuttle XPC barebone

So I'm contemplating an overhaul of my system and wanted to go Intel + Shuttle XPC this time...yes I know I'm better off with full-size solutions but I want some kind of portability so I could bring it to my office once a while (sounds insane, doesn't it?) for the long nights I may have to endure when the project kicks off.

However I haven't been keeping up with major components and chipsets a while, and with the choices available it's getting very confusing.

So I have a 4400+ X2, 2GB DDR memory, 6800GS and 2 hard drives (Raptor 74 + WD SATA 250). I'm planning on moving my 6800GS, the two hard drives, and the old DVD burner (Plextor 712SA - SATA) over, but this may change later.

Ideally, I want a Shuttle that can run C2D processors equivalent to a T7200 (2GHz mobile), but of course the desktop variant. Should also have 3 SATA ports as well as 1 PCIe.

Any ideas?
