Macprof, has posted images of the new iBook (including internal photos and a System Profiler report) taken at the the first public debut in Italy at a dinner of the POC (PowerBook Owners Club), the largest Italian Macintosh Users Group.

The snowesque iBook is very nice. It seems durable, and from what I've seen, it can stand up (surprisingly well) to drops... I have a feeling that it won't scruff as easy as would be anticipated, either.
Very cool. This computer is going to rock in education (primary and secondary, as well as higher).

Best shots yet, internal, external and screen comparisons.
Can't wait till this fall, when I will get mine.
I live in italy, use pb's since the first model came out , follow all the forums etc, but had never heard of this user group. I suppose they claimed this themelves
Haven't heard of this user gourp is not a good reason to doubt about the fact that is real and the biggest in Italy
They usually meet with Apple Executives, they have private meetings too see products and are well organized and have lots of members...
I played around with the iBook today. The cover is very "plastic" looking, and seems easy to scratch. But I noticed the cover is screwed on at the edge, that means it is replaceable as cellular phone cases.
It seems the resolution is only optimised for 1024x768. 800x600 is not sharp.
Good to see that Apple has brought back the Command-Apple key on the right side of the space bar. If i had a nickel for everytime I hit that option key wanting the command key well....I'd have enough to buy meself a new iBook :).
