LOL - you think Apple's going to sit on the already outdated PowerBook specs for another year (when they go Intel)???

It might not be in a couple of weeks, but it will surely be by sometime this fall that there will be another bump in the specs for the PowerBooks, with further tweeks and price drops.
BTW, I was also fabulously underwhelmed with today's iBook "updates." The increased ram, and $200 price drop for the top-of-the-line iBook was nice, but the pathetic 32MB graphics chip still doesn't support Core Image (or does it? I've read mixed reviews on this), and how about the incredible jump from 1.33 to 1.42 GHz? A whopping 6.7% speed bump? wOOt! (not!!)
I'm still hoping to buy a 1.8+ Ghz G4 PoweBook this fall, to replace my "aging" 1 GHz TiBook from 11/02 - don't disappoint me, Apple! I want PPC at it's peak, since I won't trust revision A of MacIntel PowerBooks (which will probably run my PPC apps more slowly, in emulation).
