Oh yeah-- nearly forgot to look.
Looks like the rumors were all pretty accurate: new iBooks at 700/800 MHz, priced under the four-digit point; and new TiBooks, up to 1GHZ, with Bluetooth and a SuperDrive. Neato!
I don't know how much DVD burning people are going to want to do on the road, but hey-- it's a nice checkbox item. Radeon Mobility 9000-- cool. 60GB drives-- cool. And the entire range of models comes in at under $3000. Super-cool.
This'll probably be the last major rev of the TiBook; in January it'll be lighting three candles on its current form factor, and the time will be ripe for a replacement. I can't begin to guess what direction they'll go in this time.
Now that Best Buy is commissioning knockoffs, it's probably just about time to forge ahead again.
My prediction: it'll be made of an aerogel.
