Default Acer Laptop upgrade

Hi all,
I'm looking for some advice for my brother. He purchased an Acer laptop that came with 2GB memory but its running a Celeron m520-1.6ghz.
He asked me if its possible to take this out and put in a faster cpu.I'm fine with building and modding desktop units but have never attempted a laptop before.
Just wondered if these were embeded cpu's or can they be changed.
Thanks for any help
