I've read about issues with the new 15" PB having over 1GB of RAM... anyone know if it would work w/ 2x1GB sticks? anyone tried it? and I would be adding it myself with some ram from 18004memory, thanks.
Got a tip for us?

AFAIK, the only issue is that the AirPort connection can get weird on you. It'll slow things down and then eventually disconnect itself, which speeds the system back up again. Do you plan on using AirPort? If so, then I imagine you'll be able to get a replacement if yours doesn't work and you're prompt in your request to Apple. 
well I'd def use airport all the time, I'm just debating between a 15", 17" or intel iBook, the 15" seems best, but its just got sooo many issues, I think im gonna get somethign else...
yeah, Im def gonna wait till MWSF (look at sig) they have the last Rev. 17" powerbook for $1999, thats very inticing!

Good point.
I'm doing the same, although I know I only need an iBook so that's already decided.
Im def gonna get an iBook if they are 13.3" WS, dual core intels @~25% faster than current iBook, 7hr battery life, and thinner for like $800 with edu discount, i'd def get that
Yeah, I think the new iBooks have a lot of potential. I reckon they'll be the biggest benefactors of the Intel switch. Fingers crossed.
