O'Grady's PowerPage claims that Apple is prepping an update for the PowerBook line "that could arrive as soon as this week."
The update is expected to be a minor speed bump but few details are available.

Of note, readers are reminded that Apple Expo Paris kicks off this week on September 20th. While Steve Jobs was originally expected to provide a keynote speech, that speech was canceled in early September.
