It's just iPhone 4, and yes, you can. Purchase Mac OS X Leopard (I think it's available on Amazon) to upgrade to 10.5.8

Not too sure about this. I would contact Apple's support website for this matter, and I only say that because I'm not sure if the later versions of Mac OS X include firmware support for the hardware that's in your Powerbook.

Agreed, I don't think PPC chips are supported under SL.
