I have the Asus N4L-VM-DH Motherboard as follows:

Due to the fact that I may have to wait a while for these new Core 2 Duo Mobile T5500 CPUs I was thinking of getting the cheapest Core Duo Mobile and I have seen the T2300.
Only problem is that I am not sure if they will work in the ASUS board due to the socket type. The ASUS needs a 479 chip but the T2300 seems to be a 478 as per this link:
http://processorfinder.intel.com/details.aspx?sSpec=SL8VR
But then some sites seem to imply that its a 479 chip like this one:

Does anyone know about the 478 / 479 compatability ???
Just to confuse matters further I have also seen this T2300 CPU listed as follows:
