So when do you think we'll get iBook update? October? November?

What kind of specs do you think we'll get?

good question, its gotta be coming soon. I'm willing to bet a 1ghz G3 (can't have a 1.2 cause the 12 inch powerbook is at 1ghz. ) Airport extreme, 256 ram standard on the board, maybe radeon 9000 or geforce4 go, i doubt the FX line would make it in. I honestly have no idea, i am just throwing this out there for the heck of it, but i think these are somewhat reasonable guesses. I'd like to see that $999 ibook come with a dvd rom instead of just the cdrom, even that i think could push a lot of people to buy it. Atleast the ability to custom order the optical drive, say 1049 for dvd rom.

I hope they come later rather than sooner. Why? I'm trying to sell my iBook, and it'll become harder to sell when it's 2 models old instead of just the 1 model old it is now. So I'm quite happy for them to delay the iBooks :)
