15inch PowerBooks Ready?

PowerPage claims that 15" Aluminum PowerBooks are ready and waiting...



    The original TiBook has already migrated to its new Aluminum skin and is just waiting for the existing Titanium models to sell out. Word from a reliable source is that Apple has the new Aluminum PowerBook 15s already boxed and ready to go but is waiting for the existing models to disappear first.



The article speculates that WWDC or MacWorld may be the launching ground for the new PowerBook. Meanwhile, a recent Page 2 report suggests that the PowerBooks may be seen as early as next week.

It'll be a real shame if these things have a GeForce4 440 Go.

As much as I would want to buy a Powerbook, they're too expensive still..... This is great news though....but will the 15" have the same features as the 17" (lit up keyboard, etc...)?

Apple needs to just bite the bullet and release the new versions. Anyone who is considering a 15" PowerBook knows that the other models were released recently and thus is waiting around for the revision of the 15 ". If they are truly waiting for the current versions to sell out, they're in catch-22 situation and the cost of all that unsold inventory won't look good on next quarter's balance sheets.

I swear I heard this rumor back in February. "AlBook 15s are ready to go just as soon as the TiBook stock sells out." If it were true, I'd be expecting to see TiBooks available for steep discounts to education customers, or at least there would be reports of the existing TiBooks getting marked EOL in the retail channels.

1ghz is cheaper than 867mhz

Then again, this rumor was going around, what, feb? jan? and the discount started around march.

Well, there have been reports of steep educational discounts available on the 15" PB. So, I guess that one agrees with this rumor...
