The people who thought that the last revs of PowerMacs were getting the 7457s were delusional. According to Motorola's press releases, the 7457s are available for sampling now and will be ready to ship in Q3 2003. So if the 970s aren't ready and the 7457s are, look for the August 2003 PowerMacs to sport another G4.

Even if the 970 is ready for August, the 7457 may find it's way into the PowerBooks.

Yup….that’s my prediction as well. I think the 7457 will offer a considerable performance boost for the Power Books while offering a much better battery life, oh well, that’s another topic. I really like the 12” PB, and I’m sure it’s faster on certain tasks than the ibook; though, I consider the ibooks a better value for the buck (specially the new ones).
My 2 cents

The 7457 is also very cost-effective for Apple, since its a drop-in replacement for the 7455. I definately expect the 7457 to show up in the AluBooks.
