Hi all: I've been following Apple's notebook line to see when it might switch over to polymer. Today I saw the first evidence that this might be occurring in the near future. At www.macosrumors (one of the more reputable mac rumor sites -- if that is not an oxymoron) someone posted an intranet conversation -- apparently between two Apple employees. In this conversation one employee indicates that the PowerBook line will be upgraded to lithium polymer this summer with runtimes of 8-12 hours. Here is the relevant part of the conversation: anon: As for the TiBook, it has not been forgotten either. anon: It WILL NOT HAVE A G5. anon: It WILL break 1 gig with the G4. anon: Graphics will be enhanced with more RAM but will STILL BE ATI (think Radeon 2 aka 8500) anon: Same size configurations and look anon: NEW battery technology, based on same tech used in iPod. LONGER run time (8 to 12 hours from tests) anon: 3 configurations. anon: 1.0, 1.4 and 1.8 G4 at same price points. It WILL have Firewire 2.0 (Gigawire) and USB 1.0, and airport. Anyone have a sense of whether this could be Valence??? Doug
