According to what he had shown me, the pin count on the two cpu are the same; however, the arrangement of the pins are different. So my pentium M would not fit in the Travelmate 2310 board.

Very odd, as the ppl I've spoken to and some research say it's a straight swap - if the socketed (PGA) is used not the soldered (BGA) unit. Only thing that needs to be consider is the thermals. Guess, I'm off to hound them some more as this is gonna bug me.
So basically this guy downgraded you from the TravelMate4000 to the Travelmate 2310; must have spent those extra days looking on ebay.
Anyhow, at least you'll know better for next time - which hopefully will be never
