November also means Penryn, Intel's successor to the current "Core 2". So if you think Phenom is going to have a chance against Core 2 (and it might), you'd probably still be better off going with Penryn if the early benchmarks are anything near accurate.

Technically, he's right.
"Penryn" is specifically the dual-core sucessor to "Merom", the current mobile CPU.

Yet, unlike the past generation where the "Conroe" codenamed desktop CPU was used to refer to the whole family of 65nm Core 2 products, this time they chose the mobile variant to be the "symbol" of the 45nm Core 2 generation.
