For the Intel Pentium M the max is 100C, same for the Celeron M, I'd be willing to be Mobile Athlons are in the same ballpark. Desktop chips typically have different tolerances since they are typically accompanied with a giant heat sink to cool them down. Most Athlon XPs shouldn't get hotter than around 85C before failure, with Intel doing something of the same.
Standard operating temp varies, and on most my machines this is around 35C. I would say that if you are seeing temps over 50C on an AMD or Intel chip you need to revise you cooling solution. Ultimately, the difference is that mobile chips are designed to use less voltage to run and thus give off less heat and consume less battery than their desktop counterpart.
