    I got one by email..

    Got the same by email days ago. Add this together with the CDRW offer on the TiBook expiring and it looks like that is getting some upgrade.

    Whether the iBook gets an upgrade (faster bus would be nice - 66MHz bus for a 500MHz processor? Stupid) is a harder one to guess at.

    OT, I preferred it when we could all say First Post. There was a lot more discussion, which is surely what it should be about. I'd have never discovered Limewire otherwise.

    I got it yesterday

    I was planning to buy a new iBook this week, but with the recent educational discount on the TiBook, I'll probably wait another week or 2 to see if anything new comes out.

    I got 1 for Edu. Store

    I got a coupon that is specifically for the Education store. Not sure what I'll do with mine. Its funny how a coupon will drive people to buy machines, though.

    nothing new

    Apple's latest press release specifically states 'no new hardware', so I guess you can buy that ibook now...

    No new hardware

    Sure, no new hardware in Paris. But that's Sept 26. Is there a gap between the 26th and 7th? Yes.

    Was the iBook launched at a show? No.

    Could new hardware be launched outside a show? Yes.

    ..then again, would Apple revamp the iBook just as folk are going back to school... probably no unless they want to nark folks. Doesn't anyone have some sort of tracking of when past models and speedbumps came out?

    No new hardware.

    Apple is probably trying to empty its inventory of 733 G4s just because. There is a very good chance apple has way too many computers in stock.

    Just missed it

    I gust received my G4 today and called apple to hopefully get the $50 as credit. Sadly they said it cannot be applied to orders that have already shipped. That's OK, I managed to get a case with no mold lines, that's worth $50 to me.
