I'm afraid there is precedent for announcing new PowerBooks at the WWDC. Jobs introduced the PowerBook G3 Lombard there in '99. See link below:

Don't be "afraid". I…
If they release it AT WWDC, it will be shocking, but with Steve talking, who knows. If anything, it'll be speed bumped.
And of course, I won't be able to get one, because i am …

New laptops (at least revised ones) and an updated Airport system.

You heard it here first.
OK, you didn't hear it here fir…
Apple needs to hit the 1Ghz mark to generate some key selling points. Also, I know they're working on higher DPI screens, so I'm looking forward to that. I wouldn't mind if they …

Indeed. Lombards, WWDC 1999. I know that t…
One cant use history to decipher when apple 's going to release a new product. But I do predict new powerbooks at MWNY, fastest being 800Mhz, same bus (please faster than 133Mh…

True of course, but msykes was just refuting the notion that WWDC is not…
Ogrady's PowerPage reports that new Books will arrive next Tuesday, April 30. Bad news is that they offer nothing but a faster chip:
* 667 MHz G4, 20 GB HDD, 256 MB RAM, DVD/CD-R…
If O'Grady is right, I may get one, unless they tempt me with an iBook, too. (Paid for by work, not me.)
The rumor does "feel" right:
� price increase along with the iMac

I posted this several times on Apple's site...but they keep removing it before anyone can read it. It is not much, simply that my network card in my 1999 Powerbook G3 fried while c…
Did you always connect it to the same ethernet port (on the hub, that is)? It is possible that one port on the hub has somehow shorted and is sending dangerous electricity to the P…
I thought that, too. The port I used is also used on a 333Mhz Powerbook, and two 1400cs Powerbooks. We sometimes use that port to hook up and additional printer. No problems in ove…
hey everyone -
I am thinking about getting the Tibook 550 - the prices certainly have dropped. I'm waiting for the new ibook to come out too.... cross your fingers it is a G4.

My old Ti550's fan comes on about the same as my current Ti667. Most of the time it's quiet, (no fan) but if you do something taxing like watch a QuickTime movie or DVD then it'll …
