New Powerbook due on the same date.

YEEEESSSS!!! Please:( ...

Geez, another date. I sure hope they're right. I've grown weary of built-up expectations only for them to come and go without any new products.

Same here. Hopefully this is the real deal.

so this will probably be the last powerbook that will be able to run OS9 eh? looks like it might be a good time to upgrade...

very nice, hope its true:D

No more 22"? I hope that means the 23" comes down to the 22's level ($2000 would be better)....

So, 17" @ $999, 19" @ $1500, 23" @ $2000 (or $2500)? I hope so.

i just dont believe this :( lol, theres been rumors of powerbooks coming out many times since august...but we'll have to wait n see, but a powerbook is way too expensive for me...if they kept the current 667 model n took off $1000 CDN to it or something, idd buy it

Only the iBook is in my price range, and even then it barely sneaks into what I'd like to spend. Give us news of an iBook update!

If this is true, then the 19" LCD will take over the $999 price point. 19" LCD's can be found from other vendors now for about $800, so it better be at least competitive. I suspect the 17" LCD will be dropped and replaced with a 17" LCD Widescreen style display. My guess would be at most $799. Then maybe we'll see the HD for $2799 or something like that. Just in time for Christmas :)

the 22" @ 1600x1024 is just too damn lo-res for OS X. The icons are enormous compared to the 23's 1920x1200


I am crossing my fingers for a new PowerBook!!! It *may* very well be my first :)

OK, How does November 19th sound if the 5th doesn't pan out? :D
