trade ipod 4g 8gb for ibook ?

Idk it seems like there getting the better end of the deal, a third gen would though.

Probably not. You can pick up an iBook for ~$50, often less. If you want an iBook, I recommend just selling your touch and buying one.

You could get a newer, better iBook by just selling your iPod. But if the one you are considering trading for is in good enough condition, get it.

If it's a color clamshell, then it's a G3.

Yes. G3 were good, not anymore.

If you ever get an iBook, make sure it is a 1.33 Ghz or above G4 processor.

What he said.

If it has a G3 processor, then yes, it's a G3. Not worth it. I wouldn't get a G3 Mac unless it was as a collector's item, or if I wanted to run OS 9 and the apps that come with it.

No, most of the G3 iBooks were white- the Clamshell only went up to 466MHz.

OP, if it is a G3, turn it down. If a G4, it'll be usable but slow. I would advise against this trade.

Right, I didn't say all G3s were colored, but that if it is colored, it's a G3.

Edit: I see what you're saying now. Didn't see the OP posted it was 800MHz.

hi i was wondering what u guys think, should i trade my iPod touch 4g 8gb for a ibook g4 its 800mz with 384 mb sdram , i barely use the ipod i have a iphone and ipad4 so do you think its a good trade ?

Oh, just remembered. If you intend to sync the iPad, you are out of luck. If you have an iPhone 5, you are also out of luck. I believe the 4/4S require iTunes 10.6. iTunes 10.6 requires OS X 10.5 which requires a G4 processor above 867 MHz. However, if the iBook is a G4, you can use LeopardAssist to put Leopard on it. G3- no Leopard.
