Is the new version going to support the mobile GeForce chipsets? If not, be aware that some Powerbook models sport this while others have Radeon chipsets; all the 12" aluminum models have GeForce chipsets in them.

GeForce is not supported. The instructions specifically point to the 1.67GHz models (and the very last 1.5GHz model, but that's not recommended since it's hard to identify the supported rev-d). These all have ATI Radeon graphics card.
