Mac mini: Socket P

as far as I can see, the new mini has P7350 (2x2GHz) and P8400 (2x2,26Ghz) Socket P. Is that correct, or does the mini have Socket M-CPUs like it's predessor? Asuming that it has Socket P, it could be upgrated to T9600 (2x2,8Ghz, 35W TDP)…

Asuming that it has Socket P, it could be upgrated to T9600 (2x2,8Ghz, 35W TDP) or even to Core 2 Extreme Mobile QX9300 (4x2,53GHz, 45W TDP).
Has it done before? Is it possible, as maybe the soldered the CPU onto the Board?

(Or Core 2 Extreme Mobile X9100, 2x3,06 GHz, 44W TDP, but is 3x the price of P7350)geiz hals.at/deutschland/a340609.html
