If you are in the market for an iBook I would go ahead and buy one right now. I don't see the iBooks being updated for a while as they are already bumping into the powerbooks as far as performance goes. If they updated them again they would be faster than the current powerbooks.
 
If you are in need of an iBook/PowerBook now, then go ahead and purchase. That is always the best time to buy. There will always be something newer coming along. The iBook was just updated this Fall. The PowerBook may be updated sometime just prior to WWDC in June.
 
just buy the darn thing..thats what i did

u cant keep up with techonology....

buy what you can afford, if you get a powerbook now, u probably wont need to upgrade for awhile...thats all i can say..

ibook, you will probably dump it when new PB comes out.... and hence you will lose money right there....

am i makin any sense?
