Taipei Times reports on research analyst predictions that Apple will be introducing "light-weight [notebooks] with a stylish design aimed at luring female users."

12-inch notebooks at 1.5kg (3.3lbs) 14-inch notebooks below 2kg (4.4lbs)
Apple's current iBook comes in at 2.2kg (4.9lbs) for the 12" and 2.7kg (5.9lbs) for the 14" model. Meanwhile, Apple's PowerBook weighs 2.1kg (4.6lbs) for the 12" and 2.5kg (5.6lbs) 15" model.
The article/analyst does not specify whether or not these notebooks represent revised PowerBook or iBook models.

Meanwhile, iBook rumors point to a January release, but expectations of a 13.3" model rather than a 14" model.
