You should probably wait for Sandy Bridge-based laptops to appear sometime this quarter.
Don't go for a current quad-core i7 because the battery life will be abysmal.
For gaming you need a discrete graphics card, preferably a Mobility 5650 (AMD) or GT 335M (Nvidia) or above, but not too good or battery life will again suffer. Fine balance there.
