Upgrading my MOBO - a few questions

Hello. I'm currently running a jetway board with the 1.5 via processor. I got this off ebay when I first built this computer and while it's served me well, I think I'm going to upgrade in the coming months.

I am thinking of going with a p4. Here are my wants in the new mobo:

-power consumption - the jetway and all of my accessories are running fine off my m2-atx. I do not want to change that and have to upgrade my power supply. How can I make sure the board/cpu I'm looking at won't drain me?

-good onboard sound and video. I'm not crazy about the sound onboard the jetway I'm using now. If I can get good built in sound and avoid using a sound card that would be great. Same with video.

-S3

That's basically it. Obviously microitx would be best but whatever.

I saw this board at Newegg.com. Any thoughts on it?

If anyone knows of a mobo/cpu combo that fits the bill for me I'd love to hear suggestions.

Thanks!
Chris
