With wireless capabilities built-in, the chip allows for a user to access wireless networks without the use of any further hardware. Coupled with some "pretty amazing power-saving technologies":http://www.vr-zone.com/reviews/Intel/Centrino/page12.htm, this makes for a pretty darned efficient mobile chip.
