Basically you want to look for chips especially designed for laptops. I'd post suggestions but I'm not up-to-date considering laptops aren't my specialty.
What laptops have desktop CPU's in them? The P4 in a laptop is not the same as one in a desktop. The Pentium M is much better with battery life, but it's based on the P3, and is part of that family. They're all designed for laptops.
